On July 25, 2009 the thirty-two young men and women participating in the 2009 CATALYST Academy presented their research findings to their parents as well as Cornell faculty, staff, and students.  Each of the following presentations explores the diversity of fluorescent protein expression using E. Coli in various related Biomedical applications. These projects incorporate fundamental concepts in engineering, chemistry, and  biology, to investigate phenomena at the microoscale interface.

Presentation One: Production of Therapeutic Proteins in E. coli

Presentation Two: Yellow Fluorescent Protein               

Presentation Three: Uses of Multi-Colored FP to Study Cancer Metastasis

Presentation Four: Mutations, Proteins, and DNA

Presentation Five: Genetic Engineering in Organisms

Presentation Six: GFP: Understanding, Researching, and Utilizing
