\"Genetic engineering is our best bet to save the world,\" says Bill Liao, Founder of CoderDojo, a global network of hackerspaces and partner at SOSVentures. \"That's why we're offering Synbiota's global network of researchers and biohackers $300,000 in available funding to accelerate the development of sustainable biological solutions via the SynBio axlr8r program.\" Learn more, and sign up at synbiota.com\/axlr8r. <\/p>\n
Synbiota is satisfying a global need for advanced virtual lab technology with its free web-based software. Previously limited to large corporations such as Monsanto, genetic engineering is touted by experts as one of humanity's best tools to combat global challenges in climate, access to food, fuel, materials, and the development of effective, low-cost medicine. <\/p>\n
\"Biotech is advancing much faster than computer technology, and Synbiota is at the heart of this revolution\" says Rob Carlson, principal at Biodesic, and synthetic biology advisor to corporations and governments around the world. \"Bringing together a global cadre of independent researchers, and pairing them with real funding opportunities is just the sort of thing that ignites revolutions. This is an incredible opportunity for the iGEM, DIYBio, and entrepreneurial communities to fund their work.\" <\/p>\n
