Week 3 of the internship involved a visit to Bishop Museum. The students databased specimens within the Herbarium Pacificum collections, filed specimens, and researched their project species. Tours of other Bishop Museum collections and exhibits, a visit to the Planetarium, and a number of shopping trips completed the week. Two students and one of the teachers had the opportunity of extracting DNA in the Pacific Center for Molecular Biodiversity.
