Fun things happening in the biology lab today! We have the arrival of our new lab pets: hissing cockroaches for invert biology and ecology of infectious diseases this fall! AND Dr. Landis got to try his hands at being a microbiologist today!

Microbe Art! For Micro lab semester, we learned about genetic transformation and how microbes can be ‘made’ to produce pigments. Then, using already transformed bacteria, the students tired their hands at ‘painting with bacteria’. The results are pretty awesome! (Disclaimer, Dr. VZ does not condone violence of any kind- the illustrations made below were done in a joking and friendly manner)

Excited (and nervous) for the Penn State York Biology Club Parasite Zombie presentation today! When it comes to introducing people to parasites, I can’t be minimalistic. Want to see some stuffed parasite plushies, including a handmade, 6ft tapeworm (thanks Amy Kathryn!)? You got it! Want cute cut outs for your selfie? Check! Wanna see some critters up close and personal? By all means, have a blast! Hoping for a great turnout today!
