BIOMOD (http://biomod.net/) is an annual bionanotechnology competition for undergraduates. Students from all over the world and from many different fields take part. Over the summer, teams design and carry out their own research projects¬, and present them at a ‘jamboree’ in October. Next year’s event will be hosted in San Francisco. Each team designs and builds simple machines and structures out of the basic molecules of life – DNA, RNA and proteins. BIOMOD is a student-driven initiative that offers a complete and authentic scientific experience – from designing a research project to conducting experiments and presenting your work to your peers.
This BIOMOD information session will raise awareness and answer questions about starting a team to represent Oxford University.
