Bioprospecting Birmingham

This week I have been down at Birmingham Open Media (BOM) running an interactive DIY-Bio session called Bioprospecting Birmingham to see if we can grow some bacteria in the gallery that has been sourced from the buildings and monuments of Birmingham. I made a short video to explain what I was up to!

You can make agar at home too - take a look at Dr Simon Park's Exploring the Invisible website for information and saftey considerations.
