Research experience for NYS high school teachers and students

CRE Postdoctoral Fellow, Dr. Erin McCullough, led NSF-supported Research Experience for Teachers (RET) and Research Assistantships for High School Students (RAHSS) summer programs that included summer research experiences for two New York state high school teachers and their students. They developed genomics teaching modules that have been incorporated into the classroom as part of the Broader Impacts of an NSF award to Steve Dorus, Scott Pitnick, Mariana Wolfner and Jason Wiles. The educational module will be published in the May 2020 issue of the journal American Biology Teacher.
