Lecture, chapter 14 - Biotechnology

Today we covered most of chapter 14 in Biotechnology.

We discussed some of the services offered within the context of biotechnology, such as genetic testing and screening, and DNA profiling, mainly using short tandem repeats (STRs) or microsatellites.

On Friday we will discuss genetic testing via DNA microarrays, and we will have a brief discussion on population genetics.
