The student lecturers, Matt and Sierra, at our summer camp began formulating their presentations about viruses and antibiotic resistance! We are pumped to share our knowledge to help high schoolers understand antibiotics and use them appropriately in the “real world”.
July 12th – July 18th
This week was all about finding questions to ask our experts: doctors, industry specialists, and foundations that all work with antibiotics, antibiotic resistance, or bacteriophages.
July 19th – July 25th
Preparations were made for our summer camp next week! Food, name tags, lab manuals, and binders are waiting for our campers and staff members! We are so excited to meet our students and work with them over the week!
July 26th – August 1st
Summer Camp week! Read about the blast that we had with our students HERE. Unfortunately, lab progressed fairly slow due to our staff dedicating a majority of their time to the summer camp, but no regrets, as our students had a wonderful time.
August 2nd – August 8th
This was a major background research week. Source gathering, journal reading, and article writing galore! Phage therapy and bacteriophages are fascinating to read about, find our sources around the rest of the wiki!
