Abstract:There is a growing need for the development and communication of cell culture-based laboratory activities specifically designed for undergraduate students. This multi-week laboratory activity allows students to take part in the planning, experimentation, data analysis, and communication of the results of their cell culture-based research project. The laboratory activity specifically uses fatty acid induction of lipid droplets in cancer HeLa cells followed by a novel live-cell staining protocol developed specif… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
