Description du projet

Sphères d'activité: Education – enseignement Entrepreneuriat Technologies

Biology is hard and complicated. We're finding ways to make it a lot easier, and a lot more fun. Join us and learn to make things using biotechnology. You can work together on big ideas, and products that you can take home. Our goal is to create a community that is focused on discovering or building great and inspiring things using biotechnology. Some projects may focus on making a big discovery, inventing a new technology, learning something new about our local environment, creating a new art piece or developing a new product. Team members can be coming from any background, and experienced mentors volunteer to support the teams. Teams present their work as demos or product sales.
