June 20-24, over 250 students from 17 countries will share their projects that bridge art, design, and biotech. Over the course of five days, teams from 51 high schools and colleges will present before a global audience and 60+ expert judges. Eight teams will be selected to advance to the Finals on June 24, where judges will select the Overall Winner to take home the coveted Glass Microbe.

Student teams explore new ways biotech might impact agriculture, medicine, materials, fashion, energy, architecture, and more—all while considering sustainability, ethics, and equity. Join us for BDC Summit 2022 to hear student, speaker, and expert perspectives around how biotech is impacting every aspect of our lives.
