Dolan DNA Learning Center, Science museum in Cold Spring Harbor, United States.
The Dolan DNA Learning Center is an educational facility in Cold Spring Harbor dedicated entirely to teaching genetics to students and the public. Its spaces feature laboratory workstations and scientific instruments that allow visitors to work with real DNA samples and genetic materials.
The facility was founded in 1988 as the world's first learning center dedicated entirely to teaching genetic concepts. Since then, it has become a leading place for hands-on genetic education.
The center connects students with scientific processes through interactive exhibitions, laboratory experiments, and digital platforms that explain genetic principles.
Visitors can join laboratory classes led by experienced staff members and do not require prior scientific background. It helps to check ahead since available activities vary depending on age and group size.
The DNA Subway platform lets students analyze plant genome data online and work with real genetic information. This digital tool connects schools worldwide and shows how modern science can be taught from a distance.
