Prelab-Discussion Slides and Recording

Each link below is for pdf files of the powerpoint slides used at the Discussion each week.

These will appear by Friday morning each week prior to the labs for the following week, which start on Wednesday, to help in completing any assignments that are due.

If you would like a refresher or help with lab basics, see Dr. Abram's tutorials that are very useful going into biochemistry lab.
