[Leica] In the Lab

[leicar at q.com (Aram Langhans)]

George. Glad you looked.  It is a fun program.  It gives the teachers 
involved a chance to work and see things they might never have see, too.  It 
really enriches their experiences that they can bring back to the classroom, 
and the SEP program allows them access to very expensive equipment to do 
pretty sophisticated labs in a high school or middle school setting.  
Imagine being in a HS biology class and being able to transform bacteria 
with a gene from a jelly fish and make it glow.  Cool stuff that hopefully 
teaches some basic understanding of DNA, RNA and proteins beyond just doing 
the cool stuff.
 
And yeah, Steve.  The gloves are a cool bonus.....  Some are even black.
