CityLab received a supplemental SEPA award from the National Institutes of Health to celebrate the bicentennial of Darwin’s birth. CityLab will offer an inquiry module that explores evidence of the molecular basis for the differentiation Darwin observed among Galapagos finches. The module will be available from February 2009 to school groups coming to CityLab.

Teachers that would like to implement the Evolution Revolution - Back to the Future with Darwin as part of a CityLab visit please let us know. The Lab portion will implement the Lowry Essay for determining the concentration of protein in a liquid using a standard.
