Build a Cell Workshop #7

 

NIST is closely monitoring guidance from Federal, State, and local health authorities on the outbreak of COVID-19. To protect the health and safety of NIST employees and the American public they continue to serve, NIST has decided to make the Build a Cell Workshop #7 virtual only. For more information on COVID-19, please visit:  cdc.gov/covid19.
 

Build a Cell Workshop #7 will take place on August 21, 2020, and is hosted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

Since 2017, Build a Cell has organized collaborative working meetings across the United States. Operating on the principle of “rough consensus and running codons”, the meetings are a space to share the forefront of cell-building research, brainstorm new ideas, establish and continue collaborations, and get collaborative work done in person. Build a Cell workshops have an open invitation policy—if you’re interested in the science, engineering, industry, ethics, or any other aspects of cell-building, we would love to see you there.

For more information, please visit the Build a Cell event site
