+ | '''iGEM Summerschool: food and microbes!''' | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | This year, iGEM Groningen presents the first edition of the iGEM/Sciencelinx Summerschool, where students from the age 16-18 can experience microbiology and synthetic biology themselves. The programme includes several experiments introducing microbiology but also a visit to a research facility and to the science/arts festival Noorderzon. Furthermore, the students will set up a project to find out how safe the food from their own supermarket is... | ||
+ | The programme will soon be displayed on this site. | ||

Artist [http://www.leenvanwijngaarden.nl/Leenvanwijngaarden/home.html Leen van Wijngaarden] was fascinated by the colors and shapes of bacterial colonies and decided to make art with them. Not just a pretty picture on a regular agar plate (like this [http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HijhRK2BkjA/S2ggPYgVgYI/AAAAAAAABhg/fxaE4Lxt93w/s400/onlinepaint.jpg well-known example]), but on a large scale. This should produce nice paintings, which keep evolving. The results were to be exposed during the culture festival [http://www.denachtvankunstenwetenschap.nl/en/ "The Night of Art and Science"]. | Artist [http://www.leenvanwijngaarden.nl/Leenvanwijngaarden/home.html Leen van Wijngaarden] was fascinated by the colors and shapes of bacterial colonies and decided to make art with them.
