About This Camp
Developed as a sequel to the popular Fun with DNA camp, World of Enzymes builds on basic concepts of biochemistry and molecular biology and enables students to utilize advanced techniques to manipulate DNA. Through direct observation and manipulation of enzymes, participants develop an understanding of the importance of proteins, not only in living things, but also in recombinant DNA technology, cloning, and industry. Participants will:
build molecular models; observe enzymes in action that are used for food production and healthcare; use enzymes to cut and splice DNA; analyze DNA fragments with gel electrophoresis; and make a personal DNA fingerprint.
Grades: entering grade 8, or Fun with DNA alumni entering grade 7 $600 per student Monday to Thursday 9:30 a.m.–2:30 p.m., Parent Participation Day Friday, 9:30 a.m.–11:00 a.m. June 29–July 3 week (at all locations except LI) is Monday–Thursday due to the Independence Day holiday.
