Synthetic biology courses & training

Many of the SynbiCITE academic partners run post-graduate degrees and other courses in Synthetic Biology, as part of our collective mission to train a well-qualified workforce for the emerging synthetic biology industry. A key part of this is the iGEM (international Genetically Engineered Machines) competition that teams of our undergraduates participate in, and SynbiCITE will act as a national resource for UK teams. SynbiCITE also provides industry training courses and business leadership to start-ups and SMEs in particular.
