Wow, I have not heard of this before

@asaravia @Danielle.Lopez @james.casaletto – seen this before? Its showing as 404 Error. Sorta looks like a 3rd party platform pointing to NASA Open Science 101… But what is the ‘Gene Laboratory’?

Thanks for sharing this @Ludgenstein

Hi Ludgenstein,

Thank you for your interest in GL4U. You can access the NASA GeneLab for College and Universities training resources here: [GL4U Training Resources - NASA Science](https://science.nasa.gov/biological-physical/stories/education-opportunities/gl4u-training-resources/). We will report the dead link.
