iGEM/Sciencelinx Summerschool
In previous years, several high schools visited the iGEM Groningen teams for an afternoon. We decided to do this too, but then bigger. Sciencelinx, the science centre from the RuG, sponsored us, and together we managed to recruit students from Friesland and Groningen to spend three days of their summer holidays with us. In the future, we would like to see if we can develop this summerschool into a high school iGEM team, students from different high schools can spend their final thesis on delevoping a project…
Biological Art
Do you think micro-organisms are scary? Think again when you look at the microbial art we made together with artist and designer Leen van Wijngaarden. Painting with bacteria on huge agar plates gives evolving pictures which evoke questions from the public.
Joining forces for Discovery
Together with the iGEM teams from Wageningen, Eindhoven and Amsterdam, we join forces in representing iGEM at the Discovery festival. This is a festival at three locations where people can experience science, art and technology. We hope to see you in Nemo, Amsterdam on 28 September!
Stop the food waste!
We think our food warden sticker can help in solving the food waste problem. But raising awareness of the problem can also help. Read what YOU can do to stop the food waste!
Bringing the product to the market
We surveyed the public about our food warden. Do they think it is useful? What do they think about GMO? And what should our food warden cost?
