Dr. Janie Brennan, our main advisor, put the team together and handled our registration this year. When we first started, she guided us through the process of brainstorming and developing our project. Dr. Brennan also reviewed cloning, PCR, and other lab procedures with us.
Dr. Himadri Pakrasi met with Alex at the beginning of the summer to discuss our project, and he gave us a few pointers on the UV radiation damage resistance mechanisms already present in cyanobacteria. Dr. Pakrasi also suggested several routes we could take our project, one being to compare different genes that combat UV-induced DNA damage.
Zhang Lab Graduate Students
Eugene Kim oversaw our work in the lab and taught us how to prepare LB media, LB agar, and antibiotic plates. He also guided us through PCR and transformation while providing us protocols for both processes. When we needed to order DNA sequences for our project, he taught us how to use SnapGene and design primers.
