Overview

Find out about the importance of microbial DNA for shaping our planet.

Microbes have played a central role over geological time in creating the world we live in. The secret to how they have played a part can be unlocked by examining their DNA.

Join Dr Patricia Sanchez-Baracaldo to learn how microbes are able to circulate nutrients around the globe. See if you can build DNA using only sweets and put your DNA replication and extraction skills to the test.
