The festivities will begin on the evening of Thursday, April 24th at the Science Café where NIH ambassador, Dr. Daphne Bell, along with Dr. Elaine Mardis and Dr. Jeff Gordon of the Washington University Genome Sequencing Center will be on hand to discuss genome sequencing and to answer questions from the public. On Friday, April 25th, the St. Louis Science center has scheduled many kid friendly, interactive events, including making DNA bracelets, DNA tattoos and cheek cell swab experiments. Visitors can also watch several performances of a play about the Archon X PRIZE for Genomics or chat about the genetic traits of dogs with the breeder of Uno, the beagle who won "Best in Show" at the 2008 Westminster Dog Show. Uno may even make a guest appearance as well. Visit http://genomics.xprize.org One more for the list:
