Urban Barcode Research Program: 2014 Participant Reflections

Students reflect on participation in the Urban Barcode Research Program, a science education initiative to engage high school students to study biodiversity in NYC using DNA technology. Students complete introductory workshops and then conduct independent, student-driven research projects using DNA barcoding under expert mentorship.
