* Cheap, D.I.Y. sensor "throwies" (throw simple sensors like light, sound, etc so they'll stick to anything and you can measure remotely). Need to be under $20 each. | * Cheap, D.I.Y. sensor "throwies" (throw simple sensors like light, sound, etc so they'll stick to anything and you can measure remotely). Need to be under $20 each. | ||

** The Bay Area Dandelion Project | |||
This is an attempt to quantify the genetic diversity of the Bay Area dandelions through three major approaches: barcoding, microsatellites, and outline-based geometric morphometrics. The lab work will have to be done at Biocurious, but collection can take place across the Bay Area. Dandelions are fascinating from both social and evolutionary angles, and this project will help build expertise and skill in the area of DNA Barcoding which can be applied to some of the projects below. | |||
