The Department of Microbiology hosted a Bio-Rad Explorer Program workshop designed to help students explore their potential through science. The session included a seminar on Next Generation Sequencing by Mr. Salman Jamil, followed by a talk on inquiry-based biological education by Mr. Shoaib Rana, and a DNA Extraction activity using Bio-Rad kits led by Ms. Momna Nazir. In this hands-on activity, students isolated DNA from cheek cells and preserved it in DNA necklaces. UCP extends its gratitude to Dr. Aatif Amin, HoD, Microbiology, and Dr. Madiha Khan, Associate Professor, for making this learning experience possible.
