  1. DNA Microarray Experiment See Microarray Animation

  2. Cyber Tools for Undergraduate Education • GCAT: Network of faculty collaborating to bring cyber tools into undergraduate classrooms • Students from across the U.S. sharing data • Shared resources to make microarray experiments affordable • Clearing house of information for students and teachers • Database of results for teaching and research www.bio.davidson.edu/GCAT

  3. How Does GCAT Work? • Collects requests for DNA chips; currently 7 species available • Obtains microarrays from academic suppliers • Distributes chips to faculty teaching undergraduates • Undergraduates conduct experiments • Chips are sent to GCAT to scan (NSF-funded scanners) • FTP data to students for analysis (< 24 hours) • Students and faculty share data

  4. GCAT Resources • Protocols and FAQs • Data sets • Free Software • Listserv • Workshops • 7 Species and growing • Experienced faculty for technical support • Community of faculty for moral support See Microarray Animation
