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…

Virtual Labs (vLabs) have been gaining popularity in high school and undergraduate education, but there are few studies looking at their use in graduate-level courses. In this study, we investigated the use of six Labster vLabs assigned as homework in a graduate-level in-person Genomic Methodologies course at the University of Toronto. This course…

Glycosylation is a biologically significant post-translational modification (PTM) of proteins that involves the covalent attachment of a sugar molecule (a glycan) to a peptide sequence, resulting in the formation of glycoproteins. Glycomics and glycoproteomics involve the complete mapping of glycans of a cell, tissue, or organism.…

Isaac Akatamug Abugri; Kofi Acheaw Owusu – Electronic Journal for Research in Science & Mathematics Education, 2025
The 21st-century skills seek to develop learners who will be problem solvers in society. This paradigm shift requires the use of learner-centered strategies that emphasize collaborative problem-solving. To explore the effectiveness of such approaches, this study sought to determine how effective Wheatley's problem-centered approach would be in the…

Yin Kiong Hoh – American Biology Teacher, 2025
Epigenetics shows how environmental factors and life experiences alter gene activity without changing the gene sequences. This review examines key epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation, histone modifications, microRNAs, and long non-coding RNAs, and their roles in gene regulation. It also highlights the impact of maternal diet, stress, and…
