The research that goes into the projects these kids do is phenomenal. It's a good way to get them prepared for college.

We've got a wide variety of projects here today covering so many different topics.

It's a 600-point assignment for the second semester. It's about half of their grade.

Many of our research projects will fail.

The research is allocated in a way that is very high risk, on projects that are often very long term.

We will enhance coordination of proposed sequencing projects through the Biological and Environmental Research Microbial Sequencing Program or the Joint Genome Institute's Community Sequencing Program.
