The Genome Solver Website: A Virtual Space Fostering High Impact Practices for Undergraduate Biology

While the tools for analysis of prokaryotic genomes are available on the internet and are relatively easy for undergraduates to master, the challenge lies with faculty inexperienced in teaching bioinformatics. To meet this challenge we developed the Genome Solver (GS) website, a community of practic...
