About Synbio Indonesia

Our Story
We initiated Synbio.id in late 2019 to enhance synthetic biology and bioinformatics enthusiasts in Indonesia. Our goal is to build a community that fosters innovation and collaboration in these exciting fields.
Since our founding, we have organized numerous events, workshops, and programs to promote synthetic biology and bioinformatics education and research in Indonesia. We believe that these fields have enormous potential to address some of the most pressing challenges facing our country and the world.
Our community has grown to include students, researchers, professionals, and enthusiasts from across Indonesia, all united by a passion for synthetic biology and bioinformatics.
