Oakland meets to continue its Open Insulin project. On Monday, Cambridge is having an OpenPlant fund mixer, Oakland meets on their Vegan Cheese project, and Sunnyvale continues with its Quantum Biology project.  On Tuesday, Stockholm is at a discussion forum on gene editing and Toronto has an open house.  On Wednesday, Durham continues its study group of  MIT’s Principles of Synthetic Biology course from edX,  Guadalajara meets to host Javier Gonzales to talk about his agricultural biotech company, London has a welcoming meeting,  Oakland continues working on fun fermentation,  Sunnyvale continues a newbie biochemistry course and working on a fluorescence microscope, and   Vancouver has a workshop on mushroom cultivation.  On Thursday, Denver meets to study the MIT edX course, Oakland has their mushroom lab night, together with starting their “so you want to be a biohacker” series of courses,  Sunnyvale continues work on their bioprinter, and Vancouver has a workshop on working with laboratory strains of bacteria.  On Friday Austin will be at a biohacking conference  On Saturday, Albany is having a brainstorming session, Oakland is working on their evolved bacterial sunscreen, and Seattle is holding a molecular visualization workshop where the shape of DNA, proteins, chemicals, lipids are discussed using the visualization software Molecule World, and you can then  print your favorite structure on a T-shirt!
