Virtual Experiments

Each group should sit at an adjacent computers and work cooperatively on one of the experiments
Open this web page.
Download the all the files for your experiment:
The Word or PDF document(s) you downloaded describe your experiments. Read them.
Run Matlab
Drag all of the .m and .p files you downloaded into your Matlab working directory
Experiment!
- Run experiments according to the instructions in the handout
- Collect numerical data
- Think about ways to analyze and plot your data
- Make plots that show your results
- What conclusions can you draw about the biological system you are studying?
There will be coffee and snacks in the adjacent break room midway through the morning. Please, no food or drink in the computer room.
Have fun and ask questions if you run into any problems or need help with Matlab.
Each group should make a 2-3 slide Powerpoint presentation of their results and conclusions, and select one or more group members to speak for <5 min about them.
Preface your Powerpoint file with a title slide that says which experiment you worked on and the names of your group members. By noon, email the file to gelles@brandeis.edu.
