The Community College Career tour with Dr. Jill Biden and U.S. Labor Secretary Hilda Solis stopped at Bluegrass Community and Technical College (BCTC) the other day.  

Dear Bio-Link community,

We're going to be doing a couple of experiments at the Bio-Link Summer Fellows Forum this year.

Do you use scientific papers in your classroom?  Speak up or open access may go away. 

Do you use hot-start PCR in your courses? Qiagen columns?  or RT-PCR? or teach quality control? If so, you need to read this.

I know many Bio-Link instructors already use scientific papers in the classroom, but if you would like to learn more about ways other instructors use these resources, as well as learn more about the C.R.E.A.T.E strategy for transforming undergraduate biology education, there are two interesting workshops this summer at Hobart and William Smith colleges in Geneva, NY.
