In this section, you will find yeast experiments that student groups can also conduct in the classroom independently of the Kniffelix missions. For each experiment, there is a website for students that explains the experiment in a target-group-appropriate manner, as well as accompanying material for educators. The tasks for the experiments are based on the school curricula.
Feel free to share your experiences with the experiments in the comments.
