Meeting at NSU at the Synthetic Biology School

Novosibirsk State University once again brought together enthusiastic students, this time for the February School of Synthetic Biology, where the final of the student track of the “Genome Editing” NTI Olympiad took place, with participants arriving from various cities across Russia.

From the start, participants of this Olympiad have been using the bioinformatics package UGENE to solve various computational tasks involving genetic sequences. The meeting with the developers of the package has become a tradition and is beneficial for everyone. Students gain insight into the details of creating professional software, while developers enjoy hearing the questions, opinions, and suggestions from new users.
