Mobile DNA-Labs on the Road on Lowlands

Tuesday, July 12, 2011

The DNA Labs on the Road are visiting this year pop festival Lowlands. The lab will be in the festival from 19 - 21 August at Llowlab, an island at Lowlands about science and new technology.

Visitors can make bioethanol from yeast in the DNA-lab 'Racing with toilet paper'. They also have the possibility to isolate their own DNA, which they can take with them as a necklace. The isolated DNA of the visitors will also be hung in a DNA tree, together to create the genome of Lowlands.

The three activities are organised by:

  • DNA-lab Delft (Science Centre Delft) - Yeast energy
  • UMCU / CGC - DNA necklaces
  • UMCU / CGC - the genome of Lowlands
