DESCRIPTION:Café Synthetique is the monthly meetup for the Cambridge synt
 hetic biology community with informal talks\, discussion and pub snacks.\n
 \nFernan Fedirici is a co-organiser of TecnoX\, an undergraduate initiativ
 e in Latin America which promotes playful and low cost learning technologi
 es to address issues of social relevance\, including robotics\, software a
 nd synthetic biology. After an introduction to the competition - which lik
 ely features a lot of engineering\, tinkering and hacking - Chih-Chun Chen
  will be drawing on her research on design thinking in the fields of synth
 etic biology and swarm robotics to ask the room "Are synthetic biologists 
 engineers\, tinkerers or hackers?" - come ready to discuss! \n\n \n\nFerna
