The BioArt Hub becomes The iGEM BioCreative Hub! BioArt & BioDesign join efforts under the new initiative while staying loyal to The BioArt Hub goals!
About
The BioCreative Hub serves as a vital link between the scientific and creative communities, facilitating robust communication, forging new connections, sharing ideas, and democratizing access to the arts. It cultivates an environment conducive to collaboration while also introducing, fostering, and backing biodesign and product design concepts and processes within synthetic biology projects.
Description
This year, our project team aims to explore the intersections between biodesign guidance and the needs of iGEM Competition teams. We will analyze various interferences to discern how they can aid iGEMers in their endeavors. Our goal is to steer iGEM teams towards creating outputs that seamlessly blend scientific advancements with strategic design processes, thereby envisioning products with market viability, potentially as start-ups.
Commencing in May and concluding in November, our project will be dedicated to brainstorming and crafting materials tailored to support iGEM teams within a virtual platform that synergizes creativity and scientific innovation. Ultimately, our aim is to present our ideas both physically and virtually at the 2024 Grand Jamboree, assessing their potential impact on the synthetic biology community for potential application in 2025.
Recruitment is currently closed! Stay tuned, we'll open in April! You can connect with us on Slack for more information!
