"DNA Structure" by GenBioOrg

In this Hands-On Exhibit we will teach the kids about helical structure of DNA molecule. We will use a Ball-and-stick model to teach the kids how four different nucleotides work together to make a double helix in DNA molecules. In general kids will learn about the importance of DNA in cells, its roles and its structure.

Founded in 2006, GenBioOrg was established to help provide academic, educational, and social cohesiveness for Genetic, Bioinformatics and Computational Biology graduate students. The group works to promote the program and field of study to the Virginia Tech community by inviting external speakers to give campus-wide seminars at the university and by participating in outreach activities such as KTU.
