Have you heard of how insulin is manufactured? Debates over GMOs in food and lab grown steaks? Would you wear a mushroom-leather jacket?
Synthetic biology unites all these developments, and it is advancing fast: we are at the dawn of a new bioengineering revolution that will change everything, but often we don’t know how to talk about it! Join us for a series of synbio events that aim to create spaces for human connection where dialogues about important science can be held. Good science stories make waves when everyone has a place in the narrative.
