如何測試？ （進行中）

Did you ever wonder what they do to get the lab results ordered by your doctor or how medicine gets developed?   Maybe you are curious what a biomedical scientist does?  

In the first four weeks, I will present the method and principle behind some assays (lab tests) in the biomedical lab.  The following two weeks, we will discuss molecular biology techniques.  In the last two weeks, we will discuss how some medicines are developed.  I will either present a case study or thought questions to encourage discussion during class, then we will play an online trivia game with what we learned.
