GTAC Excursion
On Thursday 8 September, the Unit 3/4 Biology students participated in the “Outbreak! Identify and control the spread of a pathogen” program at GTAC.
Students were given the opportunity to explore emerging diseases, identifying how they are spread and identified.
It was fun using the equipment and seeing firsthand how scientists use specific techniques like PCR to understand infectious diseases.
