DESCRIPTION:A range of experts in the domain\n\nSpeakers: Lena Asai\, desi
 gner\, Open Science School and Center for Interdisciplinary Research\, Par
 is Juanma Garcia\, biologist\, Open Science School and Center for Interdis
 ciplinary Research\, Paris\nJuliette Lenouvel\, biomaterials\, Open Scienc
 e School and Center for Interdisciplinary Research\, Paris\nDarja Dubravci
 c\, PhD biology\, EPFL Bioinspired Platform Coordinator\nGarcia del Valle 
 Pablo\, PhD computer sciences\, EPFL China Hardware Innovation Camp\nVanes
 sa Lorenzo Toquero\, biodesigner\, Hackuarium\nThis workshop focuses on bi
 omaterials\, bio-inspired\, and biological materials. We attempt to mix b
 iology and material science with design thinking and rapid prototyping. T
 he aim of this workshop is to connect science and engineering students wit
 h artists and designers to explore new applications of biomaterials. We en
 courage participants to explore alternative ways of conducting scientific
  research in an interdisciplinary setting.\n\nWhat would happen in Co-lab 
 Biomaterials workshop.\n\n	DESIGN WORKSHOP: Brainstorming on the biomateri
 als using a human centered design thinking method. Creating a narrative wh
 ere the materials are used in a everyday context.\n	LAB ROTATIONS: we will
  have lab activities around the topic of biomaterial. Participants will ha
 ve the chance to touch\, sense\, and experiment on different materials\, l
 ike kombucha\, algea based materials\, fungus materials\, natural fibers..
 ...\n	SCIENCE LECTURES : Short lectures on the biology and physics of the 
 biomaterials will be given during the workshop.\n	PROTOTYPE MAKING:  On t
 he last day of the workshop\, we will  make tangible prototypes to demons
 trate your group project. \n
