Barcode Long Island (BLI) , funded by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (a branch of the National Institutes of Health) Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA), involves high school students in campaign-based biodiversity research of Long Island. (dnabarcoding10...)
Barcoding US Ants, funded by a SEPA supplement to BLI, is a national effort that aims to show the feasibility of citizen scientists using DNA barcodes to identify and map the ant species of the United States. (dnabarcoding10...)
Founded in 1890, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) has shaped contemporary biomedical research and education with programs in cancer, neuroscience, plant biology, and quantitative biology. Home to eight Nobel Prize winners, the private, not-for-profit Laboratory employs 1,100 people including 600 scientists, students, and technicians. The Meetings & Courses Program hosts more than 12,000 scientists from around the world each year on its campuses on Long Island and in Suzhou, China. The Laboratory's education arm also includes an academic publishing house, a graduate school, and the DNA Learning Center (DNALC).

In 1988, CSHL established the DNALC as the world’s first science center devoted entirely to public genetics education, and now operates facilities in Cold Spring Harbor, Brooklyn, Harlem, and Sleepy Hollow dnalc.cshl.edu.... The DNALC popularized several methods for delivering genetics instruction, including student laboratory field trips and summer camps, educator workshops, biotechnology kits, laboratory textbooks, equipment sharing consortia, student DNA sequencing, educational interfaces to bioinformatics tools, and multimedia learning materials for biology education.
