The FabLab Lima and Konrad Adenauer Foundation organised workshop Floating FAB LAB Amazon.
We discussed the opportunities for using synthetic minimal cells as biosensors in the Floating FabLab on the Amazon river.
Fab Academy meets synthetic biology.
Introducing How To Grow (Almost) Anything
The first synth bio FabLab Academy includes Kate’s unit on synthetic minimal cells.
