Building with Biology, hosted by the Boston Museum of Science, was an event during the first weekend of August where researchers in Synthetic Biology talked to visitors at the museum about the field. Members of our team took part in this event by going to the orientation meeting where we were shown the activities we would present to the public. On the weekend of the event, our team ran stations that were entertaining and educational for all ages. These stations were anything from Building Immunity, an activity about synthetic biology applications to immunology, to Spreading Cells, an activity where visitors can spread mock cultures on a plate.

Building with Biology
Building with Biology, hosted by the Boston Museum of Science, was an event during the first weekend of August where researchers in Synthetic Biology talked to visitors at the museum about the field. Members of our team took part in this event by going to the orientation meeting where we were shown the activities we would present to the public. On the weekend of the event, our team ran stations that were entertaining and educational for all ages. These stations were anything from Building Immunity, an activity about synthetic biology applications to immunology, to Spreading Cells, an activity where visitors can spread mock cultures on a plate. After the event a group discussion was held between researchers and the public about the possibility of public wetlabs.
