Professor Bordenstein gives a basic introduction to Discover the Microbes Within! The Wolbachia Project. It is designed for high school biology students and educators in an effort to bring real-world scientific research into biology labs and lesson plans with inquiry, discovery, biotechnology, and a culture of excellence.Science influences everything we do and there is no better way to teach science than to experience it. Experience leads to empowerment and empowerment creates the foundation for critical thinking skills and ultimately a scientifically-literate public.
