Oh the Stress (Legionella pneumophila Blog Week 9)

Oh the stress, this week was pretty rough.  We had to get a great deal of work done in the lab plus we had to re-run gels and re-do some PCR on the samples we gathered because the sequencing lab at ASU was not able to sequence the samples that we extracted from the Agarose gels.  On Friday we also re-collected 8 samples in order to analyze them and see if they would test the same nearly a year later.

Despite the fact that we have had these setbacks I think that it has been a great learning week.  We got a chance to know what it is like to try to find results with an impending deadline (the Estrella Conference) looming over our heads.
