Training Program in Marine Molecular Biology

Abstract

The Marine Molecular Biology Training Program was established with the specific aim of introducing and training graduate students, who themselves are trained marine biologists, to the techniques of modern molecular biologists. The first two weeks were devoted to instruction in DNA methodology and the second to methodology for proteins, enzymes, RNA and organelles. The remaining 6 weeks was set aside for individual projects for which the students were required (for grades) to provide a written research report and an oral presentation. Evaluation by the students of the course were solicited and are attached. As expected a number of logistic problems were inevitable for the first time. These have been identified and will be remedied for the second year. The course achieved its stated goal and was very well received by the participating students.
