A very exciting week #teaching higher #Biology students in Dingwall techniques for #molecularbiology and #bioinformatics 🧬 Wonderful collaborative effort from Edinburgh Genomics, Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh 4273pi ScienceSkillsAcademy and Skills Development Scotland #STEMeducation #science #outreach #scicomm

It was lovely to visit Dingwall Newton Room this month to run molecular biology and bioinformatics workshops with local senior biology pupils.

This is Eddie Martin at JNCC conference this week. #Sonification is a powerful means to convey information about global #biodiversity. Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh EastBio DTP #PublicEngagement #STEM

University of Edinburgh. School of biological sciences came in today to talk about Bioinformatics: the power of computers in biology. Dr Daniel Barker and phd student Chenxi Zhang.

It was a fantastic morning and we really look forward to further visits in November. Many thanks to St Ambrose school, students and teachers for hosting our visit. Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh #STEMEducation #bioinformatics

Can vandalising music inspire us to take action on wildlife decline? Sigor Ros’s iconic song, Hoppipolla - used to promote BBC series Planet Earth - has been reworked by Eddie Martin to show the decline of wildlife populations over the last 50 years ➡️edin.ac/4fZSIXC

We had an amazing time at St Ambrose High on Monday with 4273pi, introducing #bioinformatics to brilliant St Ambrose Science students! 🧬✨ Students looked at #sequencedata, used #BLAST, and analysed effects of #mutations! The Hive #ScienceEducation #InspiringFutureScientists
