Workshops
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.

Biotales: the second workshop (November 16-17, 2024)
Our second weekend workshop was held on 16th and 17th November, 2024. We interacted with an energetic group of 15 early career biologists who were reflexive and willing to share experiences. This time, we also had interdisciplinary researchers working in the intersection of biological sciences, archaeology, social sciences, and anthropology, alongside molecular biologists. It was heartwarming for us to see this group building a sense of community.
Stay tuned for more stories from the second cohort of the Biotales workshop!
Biotales: the first workshop (September 28-29, 2024)
In our first workshop, a series of structured activities were organized, involving reading, writing, discussions, and making art to support our workshop participants’ reflections on their research journeys. Participants shared a range of experiences and emotions that they associate with research bringing out the unique ways in which they engage and think about the science that they do.
