The Research School of Biology at ANU offers practical laboratory classes on campus. These include:

Aspects of Human Inheritance – Dave Rowell

In this practical, we explore genetic variation in humans (including ourselves!) and how genetic variation in blood can be used to solve forensic problems. This class is best for students who have a basic understanding of genetics.

DNA forensics and phenotyping – Andras Keszei

In this practical, we look at how analyzing classical patterns of inheritance compares to using modern DNA forensics to identify individuals. This class is best for students who have a basic understanding of genetics and chemistry.
