On February 23rd, while most students were taking a break from the books during school vacation, CityLab was visited by a group of elementary school students from the Malden YMCA. We had a fantastic time with the group extracting strawberry DNA. They learned what DNA is, where it come s from,  and how DNA makes each of us unique.

Applications for 2012 SummerLab are now available at here. Hurry while there’s still space!
