Good afternoon Biology Teachers,

An interesting article that describes the proteins of the coronavirus and their functions, provides a good molecular understanding of viral function (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/04/03/science/coronavirus-genome-bad-news-wrapped-in-protein.html?utm_source=Nature+Briefing&utm_campaign=d04639c3df-briefing-dy-20200406&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_c9dfd39373-d04639c3df-44261013).

The University of Pennsylvania Department of Biology is offering a weekly series, Penn Biology Chats. The first session will be this Friday at 2pm. Katie McCluskey will be giving a talk on entomology, including what insects are and why insects are important. You can send any questions you want Katie to answer to kathmc@sas.upenn.edu. These chats will be fun, interactive sessions hosted each week, where we have biologists from the department give brief talks about an interesting biological topic, with the goal being to interact with and engage middle and/or high school-age students. They are open to anyone who wants to participate. Here is the link to participate – https://sasupenn.zoom.us/j/897545523

Take care,

Ingrid
