DESCRIPTION:Green Box Session Date: Saturday\, October 11\, 2025\nTime: 8:00am – 11:00am\nLocation:  Desert Research Institute\n755 E Flamingo Rd Las Vegas\, NV 89119 \nNevada National Security Site Tour: Date to be determined\nTime: 7:00am-5:00pm\nMeeting Location: Desert Research Institute\n755 E Flamingo Rd Las Vegas\, NV 89119 \nJoin us for a FREE professional development training on our high school Green Box unit\, Genetics and Your Environment! This Green Box provides three weeks of curriculum and all necessary supplies to complete hands-on investigations about DNA replication\, protein synthesis\, and mutations\, in the context of radiation. Students will also learn about careers related to radiation and biophysics\, and how to protect the body from radiation through time\, distance\, and shielding. \nA tour of the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS) is also provided as part of the training. The date of the tour is to be determined. During the tour\, a NNSS tour guide will accompany us to provide information about the NNSS and ties to the Green Box unit.   Space is limited. A waitlist option will be added once capacity is reached. \nSpecial Note: Although this training will cover high school standards\, all interested educators are welcome to attend!
