Una plataforma para abrir nuevas posibilidades en la biotecnología
La biotecnología es una tecnología que rara vez es visible, pero está estrechamente vinculada a nuestra vida cotidiana y tiene una influencia directa en nuestra visión de la vida y los estilos de vida.
Como la tecnología y la ingeniería en el pasado han trabajado principalmente con materiales inorgánicos y maquinarias, se les exigirá que contemplen la relación con los sujetos orgánicos y vivos cuanto más visible sea la biotecnología en toda la sociedad. Para ello, la gente debería experimentar la biotecnología, discutir diversos puntos de vista sobre la experiencia y llevar a cabo las acciones que se le ocurran.
BioClub es una plataforma basada en las tres acciones mencionadas, donde investigadores, creadores, empresas, aficionados y personas de diferentes campos que comparten el interés por la ciencia se reúnen, colaboran con profesionales de diversos campos y generan nuevas perspectivas.
