Biology teachers prepare for Panama trip

In June, three schoolteachers from New Orleans joined our lab work as we prepared them for our trip to Panama. They are participating in the National Science Foundation’s Research Experience for Teachers program. They each came to the Van Bael lab for several days to get acquainted with some of the basic techniques in endophyte isolation. They also helped us out tremendously with our project on Spartina alterniflora.  Next stop, Panama!
