DD3000 DESIGN FUTURES #9: Research Materials from a Friend

When I began researching the topic of Dolly the Sheep, I enlisted the help of an old friend of mine, Drew-Deece Cone. She's currently studying genetics in Aberwystwyth, so she's covered the subject of cloning as part of her course. Anyway, I contacted her, explaining what my project was and asking if she could provide any useful research material for me, and she recently replied with a selection of lecture notes related to cloning, which I've listed below. Unfortunately, the notes came in  Powerpoint format, and since the only way to post them here requires the use of Skydrive (which is a terrible program that doesn't work), I can't actually show them here, so you'll have to make do with names, descriptions and APA references.


DNA Replication
Notes from a lecture about different types of DNA replication, as well as the Polymerase chain reaction (PCR). These notes are presented as a Powerpoint presentation and were provided by my friend, Drew-Deece Cone.
Ironside, J. (2011/2012). 16 DNA replication. Retrieved from Powerpoint lecture notes of Cone, D., D.

Recombination
Notes from a lecture about the science behind DNA recombination, chromosomes and gene mapping. These notes are presented as a Powerpoint presentation and were provided by my friend, Drew-Deece Cone.
Ironside, J. (2011/2012). 17 Recombination. Retrieved from Powerpoint lecture notes of Cone, D., D.

PCR Applications
Notes from a lecture about the Polymerase chain reaction and it’s uses as a tool for molecular genetic analysis, as well as its drawbacks. These notes are presented as a Powerpoint presentation and were provided by my friend, Drew-Deece Cone.

Cloning and Recombinant DNA Technology
Notes from a lecture about cloning and recombinant DNA technology, as well as the relationship between the two. These notes are presented as a Powerpoint presentation and were provided by my friend, Drew-Deece Cone.

Drew, if you're reading this, I owe you one!
