Students will isolate their own bacteriophages, and in the process gain a mastery of wet lab microbiological techniques. Students will be able to describe bacterial viruses, their ecological importance, life cycle, and the purification process. Bacteriophages are a proven starting point for student genome analysis since they are plentiful, highly diverse, easily isolated directly from nature.
