[Leica] A few more student shots

[Aram Langhans]

They have moved on to something else, but I can't recall the name as the 
lab assistant poured the gel for us this time.  Next time we will do it 
on our own.  Maybe other labs in the building still use EtBr.  Not 
sure.  There are still signs up on the imaging station about using 
gloves, but they might just be a hold over. It has been two years since 
we worked in their lab as the college did not have independent research 
last summer due to Covid.  It was iffy this year until the last month or 
so before summer quarter.

We have a bunch more PCR to do with different primers for different 
suspected neurotransmitters, then we will cut the bands out and clone 
the PCR product to get it ready for sequencing.

They are excited to actually be doing something in a lab.
