We expect over <span class= "green">5000 visitors</span> during the night where science meets art. The festival starts at 8pm and ends at 5am. Also, during the day, <span class="green">300 high school students</span> will also visit STRP Eindhoven.  
We will take our visitors on a tour in our provisional laboratory, where they will learn about the <span class= "green">process of genetic modification</span>. We want to give people a feel of how synthetic biology is performed, from ordering a perceptible characteristic in the form of a BioBrick, to observing this implement feature in bacteria. The visitors participate alone or in a group up to four persons. Each group is accompanied by an iGEM team member as expert, who will inform the participants about the biological processes and how to carry out the different steps.
