Abstract

The above students (Splaver, Gottlieb, and Azizian) registered for an independent study course I (Nolan) gave in 1993 that involved learning techniques in molecular biology to solve a problem in neuroscience. Because Yeshiva University is a small undergraduate college with minimal research facilities, I have been doing post-doctoral work at the nearby City College of New York, which has a graduate program and well-equipped research labs. The project I chose to bring from City back to the students at Yeshiva required verifying an experiment that I had already attempted, so I knew how much time the project would take, the types and amounts of materials needed, and some of the pitfalls the students would encounter.
