In 2025, they will all begin their teaching careers in Saxony and will, amongst other subjects, be teaching biology. How modern genetic engineering can be reconciled with the Saxon curriculum was one of the topics covered during the project day. More importantly, however, the pupils got to try things out for themselves and experience how gene scissors work and how genetic modifications can be detected using DNA sequencing. The experimental basis was an experiment co-developed by Professor WĆ¼nschiers, which combines both techniques and can be carried out in schools as part of project days (see https://www.cb.hs-mittweida.de/webs/biotechnologie/aktuelles/detailansicht/aktuell/8256/). PhD student Nils Schƶn guided the visitors through the programme and answered questions about the experiment itself, as well as about genetic engineering in general.
