Roberts; Meredith A. Shaddix; Bridgette N. Sullivan; Isabella M. Swan; Emily M. Hartsell; Jeffrey D. DeMeis; Sunita S. Paudel; Glen M. Borchert – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2025
Today, due to the size of many genomes and the increasingly large sizes of sequencing files, independently analyzing sequencing data is largely impossible for a biologist with little to no programming expertise. As such, biologists are typically faced with the dilemma of either having to spend a significant amount of time and effort to learn how…

Tapprich, William E.; Reichart, Letitia; Simon, Dawn M.; Duncan, Garry; McClung, William; Grandgenett, Neal; Pauley, Mark A. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
The lack of an instructional definition of bioinformatics delays its effective integration into biology coursework. Using an iterative process, our team of biologists, a mathematician/computer scientist, and a bioinformatician together with an educational evaluation and assessment specialist, developed an instructional definition of the…

Andrea C. Bardales; Quynh Vo; Dmitry M. Kolpashchikov – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
It has been shown that active learning strategies are effective in teaching complex STEM concepts. In this study, we developed and implemented a laboratory experiment for teaching the concepts of Boolean logic gates, molecular beacon probes, molecular computing, DNA logic gates, microRNA, and molecular diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma, which…

Gulson, Kalervo N.; Webb, P. Taylor – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2018
In this paper, we are interested in the notion of multiple ways of thinking, knowing and transforming life, namely an increasing capacity to intervene in "life" as a "molecular biopolitics," and the changing ways in which "life" can be understood computationally. We identify and speculate on the ways different ideas…
