 Today our Cell Biology class (BIO-3130) visited the Proteomics Lab of the Vermont Biomedical Research Network (VBRN) to learn about protein sequencing. Earlier in the semester the class extracted proteins from black-legged ticks (Ixodes scapularis) and submitted our purified protein samples for analysis. Thanks to Dr. Wai Lam and Sydney Cohn-Guthrie for the tour of the lab, explaining how protein sequencing works and for some inspiring stories!
