People tend to fear bacteria and oppose genetic modification, and thus synthetic biology. Our attempt at a novel outreach approach will teach the audience facts about bacteria, DNA and GMO in a fun and participatory way.

The Untapped Food Resource of the Century

Edible coli is a proposal for a sustainable food source.

A modified strain of the bacteria Escherichia coli will provide the optimal quantities of nutrition a human needs, by degrading otherwise non-degradable material for the human body.

First step is the production of a nutritional protein, the OneProt, and the biosynthesis of essential fatty acids – additionally, it will carry the appealing touch of lemon flavor. Then the Nutrition Generator, a custom designed, innovative and revolutionary cultivation tank will ensure an on-going amplification of the Edible coli products, easy to handle and drain from.

Could the world live off of microorganisms?
