Microbiology Workshop

We are a group of DIY Biologists who wants to promote Biology in Hong Kong. Our aims are to build a community laboratory where anyone can come and learn about Biology and work on their experiments. We also want to breach the gap between the world of formal research and the community through workshops and public talks. Bug hunt Hong Kong is our citizen science project this year.Our website:https://www.DIYBIOHK.orgMeetup group:http://www.meetup.com/DIYBIOHK/(Join our regular meeting on every Thursday evening!)Bug Hunt Hong Kong facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/BugHuntHK/
