During Advent, Year 12 students competed to make sustainability-themed Chemistrees, all of which adorn the Chemistry Department. 🎄 Congratulations to winners Sam, Jack and Yurila, who made a DNA-themed tree to honour developments in DNA technology 🧬⚗️
Here is our winning #Chemistree from our internal Year 12 competition. The tree is made of lab equipment and recycled Christmas decorations and represents the structure of DNA. #ochemistree @DrJohnODonoghue
This is a model of a single strand of DNA. Following work by pioneering scientists such as Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins, many advancements have been made in regard to DNA.
