Wayland Union High School biology teacher Brittany Storey has received grant money from the Wayland Union Education Foundation to purchase equipment to allow her students to genetically engineer E. Coli bacteria. Students in Storey’s AP biology class had the opportunity to use the technology for the first time in the beginning of February. Students worked together in groups to attempt to genetically engineer E. Coli so that it would glow in the dark, using genes from jellyfish. Four out of six groups had success on the first attempt.
