Abstract

This event aims to showcase and celebrate open source technologies in research and education with a morning of talks by a range of individuals from Raspberry Pi, OpenCell, and more followed by a Biomaker Fayre with demo stations in the afternoon.

The Biomaker Fayre will highlight projects by 14 teams participating in this year’s Biomaker Challenge (a four month programme challenging interdisciplinary teams to build low-cost, DIY instrumentation for biology. For more information, visit www.biomaker.org), as well as projects by community makers and industry leaders.
