A Hands-On Introduction to RNA Sequencing

At theBaltimore Under Ground Science Space (BUGSS)we are passionate about providing access to the Biotech Revolution, while encouraging safety and responsibility. We warmly welcome amateurs, professionals, artists, engineers, and citizen scientists,Please come and share our passion, by helping to build BUGSS.  Someone is usually there Fridays between 5 and 8 pm for an open session.   Press 105 on the keypad at the gate, then press the green call button, and we'll let you in.  Stop by and take a look around.

Baltimore Under Ground Science Space (BUGSS)

Get hands-on to learn how we measure gene expression, monitor changes in cancer cells, identify pathogens, and monitor the environment!

Baltimore UnderGround Science Space (BUGSS)

This is a two-session class on Saturday May 16 and 30th. Your ticket covers both days!This is a course for adults and is best for participants who are at least 14 years old.Ever wonder how scientists can tell which genes are turned on inside a cell? In this exciting hands-on workshop, you’ll explore the world of RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), one of the most powerful tools in modern biology used in medicine, biotechnology, cancer research, and genetics.Participants will begin by extracting RNA from biological samples and learning how this fragile molecule carries the real-time instructions cells use to function. Next, you’ll prepare the RNA for sequencing and check the quality of your samples, gaining experience with key laboratory techniques used in research labs today.Finally, you’ll step into the role of a bioinformatician by analyzing real sequencing data to discover patterns of gene expression, compare samples, and see how scientists turn raw data into biological insight.No prior experience is required. This class is designed for curious beginners, students, educators, and anyone interested in how genetics is studied in the 21st century.Scholarships are available, please reach out to us at info@bugssonline.org
