Outreach Events
Here are some of the outreach events we conducted this year.
    • Held a synthetic biology booth at the Bay Area Maker Faire. (May 17th, 2014)

    • Hosted a visit by the UCSF-UC Berkeley iGEM team to NASA. (June 13th, 2014)

    • Taught children about biology through strawberry DNA extraction at World Maker Faire in New York. (Sept 20th, 2014)

    • We presented our project to California Academy of Science scientists and public engagement personnel, seen posing with us here under the Academy's T-Rex! (Aug 20th, 2014)
