final grade, is one way we evaluate your understanding of
the molecular biology used in designing genetic circuits
and your ability to communicate these findings in an appropriate
and accurate manner
- Student presentations will be given from 1-2 p.m. on
lab days 5-8; see the Presentation Schedule.

Remember to address weaknessess/inconsistencies in the study -- do the results support the authors' conclusions?
- We will use the Presentation
Evaluation Form to grade your presentation

even the day you are presenting; be prepared to
discuss each article and ask questions. See How
