UA undergraduates can take Asma Hatoum-Aslan's amazing Phage Discovery class, and now we're using the GRIDION to sequence the genomes of the phages they discover. It's a wonderful chance to introduce the latest technology to students, and has the added benefit of getting them sequencing data in only 48 hours! We started the run yesterday, and we already have several fragments that are likely to be entire genomes in single pieces!
