Genes in Space STEM Contest

Genes in Space: Design (and launch!) a pioneering experiment in space biology. 

Genes in Space is a science contest that invites USA students in grades 7 through 12 to design biotechnology experiments for space. Students will pioneer space biology research on the International Space Station to address the real-life challenges and opportunities of space exploration. 

The winning experiment is conducted in space!

Genes in Space is a collaboration between miniPCR bio and Boeing, with generous support from the ISS U.S. National Laboratory and New England Biolabs, Inc.
