Biohackathon.xyz

​Last weekend of November! We can host 150+ people and make it the biggest biohackathon in the world!

Join the revolution at BioHackathon.xyz! From bioinformatics to bioart, astrobiology to cyborg tech, we're pushing boundaries across disciplines. Connect with visionaries, tinker in wet labs, and shape the next era of biological innovation. Engage in cutting-edge fields like DeSci, FemTech, and BioSecurity while rubbing shoulders with renegade scientists and industry giants.

​Whether you're a DIY enthusiast, academic pioneer, industry disruptor, biohacker, founder, or DeSci advocate - your ideas could change the world. Renegade researchers, daring entrepreneurs, and forward-thinking academics are all welcome!

We have one wet lab, but access will be limited, considering the number of participants and what you can do in two days. But it's still awesome! We are talking with different folks about what we could do with it, maybe workshops. Send us an email if you have suggestions about wet lab use!

The ticket covers a warm meal on Saturday and Sunday. A bar on-site will also be open during the daytime with food and snacks.
