Join the Synthetic Biology and Climate Synthetic Biology Societies this term for a range of talks and workshops exploring synthetic and engineering biology.
SynBioSoc Events Michaelmas 2024
The Cambridge Synthetic Biology Society merges engineering and biology with hands-on projects and workshops in our laboratory space spanning molecular biology, hardware construction, and scientific programming.
This term, the Welcome & Info Event will be followed by a series of computational and biological workshops throughout the term, as well as an iGEM Competition Launch and info session, and Hackathon. Workshop signups will be released before each workshop. All events will be held at the Department of Genetics.
