What is Genomics?
Genomics is the study of genes and their functions. This broadly based discipline aims to decipher and understand all of the genetic information content of organisms. |
The Teacher's Guide will help you organize a class activity on this theme and incorporate it into your curriculum (for grades nine to 12).
Samples
For the opening of the new travelling national exhibition, The Geee! in Genome, at the Canadian Museum of Nature on April 25, 2003, students were invited to participate by creating and submitting samples of art or writing on the theme of genomics. Some of the visual art was displayed in the Museum during the summer, until the exhibition closed on September 1, 2003.
Have a look at some of the works that were created for this exhibition.
