SCIENCE IS WONDERFUL

The project has been developed for NEWCOTIANA.

The online science exhibition took place between 22 and 24 September 2020 and was part of the European Research & Innovation Days.

“Science is Wonderful” featured an array of fun, educational online activities that introduce visitors to the latest cutting-edge research taking place throughout Europe and the rest of the world. We presented NEWCOTIANA with several infographics and a live Q&A session with our scientists.

FARMS OF THE FUTURE

The project has been developed for NEWCOTIANA and MYCOSYNVAC.

This project was developed for Forschungsfest 2021, but could not be exhibited due to COVID-19.

Newcotiana and MycoSynVac work with new biotechnologies that can be applied in agriculture. They investigate new technologies in order to solve current problems. “Farms of the Future” is a participatory event that brings these two synthetic biology projects out of the labs and present them in a way which can be explored experimentally, playfully and artistically.

BATTLE FOR CATTLE EVENTS

“Battle for Cattle” has been developed for MYCOSYNVAC.

“Battle for Cattle” is a fun game where players learn everything about diseases, treatment, bacteria and viruses. The game is designed specifically for children’s education in vaccines and synthetic biology. We organised several workshop formats to be able to interact with children from various ages using our game.

STANDARDISE BIOLOGY SCIENCE KITCHEN WORKSHOP

The project has been developed for ST-FLOW.

The workshop has been part of the Vienna Food Week.

Together with participants, we put together different courses in our Science Kitchen Lab, learned about the different methods and ingredients and – of course – sampled and tasted all the different recipes!
Does standardised food taste better? Does it look better?
