- 3 Discussion of project Earth Primer that takes simulation and packages them in various forms
- 4 What is nanotechnology?
- 5 How to make useful tools out of nature’s building blocks
- 6 Why to take DNA out of the cell and use it as a building block
- 7 How to use DNA for nanotechnology
- 8 Explaining science to others
- 9 Inspiring others to collaborate with each other
- 10 New tool that involves simulation and what happens in a research lab
- 11 Subject of gel electrophoresis such as how it’s used to solve crimes with DNA
- 12 Connecting molecules in sample tube with gels
- 13 Band patterns which are different molecules with different characteristics which cause them to migrate differently
- 14 The difficulties in interpreting gels
- 15 How to get the same band with a different molecule
- 16 Running gels is like baking which relates to chemistry
- 17 Troubleshooting in science is how you get answers which is why it’s incorporated into this new tool.
- 18 Simulations bring invisible phenomena to life with simultaneous linked views
- 19 Streamline problems with gels to create a working mental model which creates faster results
- 20 What additional elements can affect the particles running inside the gel with experiments in the lab?
- 21 Is the simulation model tied to empirical data or a made-up model that approximates it?
- 22 What is the timetable for curing diseases through DNA?
