Red Ribbon Week's final theme of the week is Friday Griffin Pride – “Take pride in your decisions!” #redribbonweek


On October 23rd, thirty-seven LWE students had the incredible opportunity to attend the Learning Lab "Virus Variant Detectives" at Argonne National Laboratory. This hands-on experience provided students with a deep dive into the world of biotechnology, focusing on the fundamentals of gel electrophoresis and genetic analysis.
During the lab, students learned how scientists detect and monitor virus mutations, with a specific focus on COVID-19. They gained practical experience with gel electrophoresis, a procedure used to separate and analyze genetic material. This experience allowed students to directly engage with real-world scientific methods, enhancing their understanding of biotechnology and its impact.
In addition to the technical skills they developed, students also sharpened their critical thinking abilities by analyzing COVID-19 RNA sequences. This exercise encouraged them to evaluate data and form scientific hypotheses, simulating the role of researchers in the field.
Special thanks to our dedicated LWE science teachers: Scott Fletcher, David Mulconrey, and Shane Tucker, who accompanied and supported the students on this educational experience.
