Projects for engineering biology in middle school classrooms
For middle school students and educators ready to explore the world of synthetic biology, we have two labs to get you started, and we’re building more grade-appropriate content that will be available in the months ahead.
To get started:
- The Eau that Smell lab will show you how to make stinky bacteria start to smell like bananas.
- The Frankenfood or Golden Rice will allow you to test a yeast that can bake vitamins into bread.
- The Building with Biology activities will present short outreach materials and conversation starters to engage all stakeholders.
Try some or all!
