This one-week experience at the BTC Institute is for students entering 9th or 10th grade in fall semester 2026, or higher grade level students with limited biology knowledge, who are interested learning more about DNA and genetic engineering. Students will build a DNA model, learn how to extract DNA from cells, transfer DNA into cells by heat shock transformation, amplify DNA to detect small quantities by PCR, and/or use restriction enzymes to identify DNA sequences. No prior biology or DNA knowledge is necessary. There is a $500 fee for this camp.
