Optional Pre-conference Event – Introduction to cross species interaction via Medicago sativa (host) and Sinorhizobium meliloti (symbiont)

This is an interactive lecture series focusing on techniques involved in studying plant-bacterial interactions. Participants will first have the opportunity to take part in multiple guided experiments focused on developing sterile techniques for culturing of the soil bacterium, Sinorizobium meliloti. Followed by root nodule dissection and discussion of how bacteria improves plant growth with a variety of bacterial variants. Throughout will be lessons on proper sterile procedures, experimental design considerations, importance of biological nitrogen fixation in agriculture and how to implement newfound knowledge to students.

Testimonial

“That was the first time since my first year of teaching that I did a full program of PD where the “course” was worth it from start to finish.” — Jason Kesselring, Science Coach for St. Louis Public Schools following the 2022 Science Coach summer PD training week
