About Biotales
Narrating research journeys
Biotales is an innovative outreach project involving early career biology researchers where they co-create outreach material on their personal research journeys. Through structured activities in workshops involving reading, writing, reflecting and making art, participants open up the world of life sciences research as experienced by them to aspiring biology researchers, enthusiasts as well as those within the scientific community.

About "Biobeats: Sounds from your laboratory"
A lab, through its instruments and people, and the interaction between the two, is a cacophony of sounds.
For example: the beeps and buzz of instruments, the click of the tip on the pipette, the rocking of blot in the rocking machine, the spinner dissolving the reagent tin the water, the slightly imbalanced centrifuge, the crackling of -80 C fridge, the sound of ELISA machine taking recording over each well, opening an Eppendorf tune, dismantling a western blot apparatus, the calm hum in the microscopy room, the noisy filter of cell hood, the list goes on.
Send us an audio clipping of a sound that means biology lab to you.
