GENÉTICA NA PRAÇA

(in Portuguese language only)
GeneQuest 2100: a IA que decifra o genoma
Oficina que transforma a teoria do gene em prática de genômica. Frente a uma sequência de DNA fornecida, um painel, rodando ao vivo, atua como o bioinformata da equipe fornecendo informações sobre o tipo de mutação, previsão dos efeitos na proteína e hipótese de fenótipo. Os participantes devem justificar as previsões da IA.

Memórias do Gene: Epigenética em Jogo
Simulação narrativa que coloca cada estudante no papel de um ?gene? dentro de um tabuleiro que representa o núcleo; em cada ciclo, uma carta ambiente coletiva (sono, dieta, estresse, poluição, atividade física) libera um número limitado de fichas de acetilação (LIGA) e metilação (DESLIGA), permitindo a modulação da expressão gênica.
