“…The open pedagogy design approach to UR in biochemistry and utilization of computational techniques reinforces wet‐lab experiences and have been successful in creating meaningful poster presentations and publications. In using this approach, to date, we have supported UR students to present in over 40 poster sessions at 10 different local, national, and international conferences and be authors on 5 peer‐reviewed research articles in notable journals 5–9 . This short communication highlights an open pedagogy design approach to UR in biochemistry and the utilization of computational techniques and tools to both reinforce wet‐lab experiences and provide routes for experiential learning and workforce development when in‐person laboratory work is not feasible.…”
