======McMaster Summer Workshop in Molecular Genetics ======


The McMaster Workshop in Molecular Genetics began in 2000 as an applied learning experience for Biology students in their third-year of study. It was designed to equip students with the theoretical background and practical training in several key molecular biology techniques used in modern research biology labs. The format of the course, given in all day sessions over a two-week period, allow students to focus on active learning of research-based methodology without the distraction of other, concurrent courses. 

This Wiki is meant to be a student-focused resource that allows easy access of critical information needed in the laboratory. Some parts of the website require a user id and password. These are automatically assigned to current students in the course but may be given upon written request by the instructor of the course.
