Citizen Science - US Ants

Please select one date during the summer to join Brenna, the Bug Wrangler, in the field for a bug walk and to collect specimens. On Sept. 17 you will join Brenna in the classroom at 120 Hickory St. to learn how to identify species using a dichotomous key. On Sept. 24 you will learn how to extract DNA, perform PCR and gel electrophoresis. In October (date tbd) you will have the opportunity to join a virtual meeting to go over the results and learn which ant species you collected.
