Partnership with EBRC & EBRC-SPA

We are proud to be an official partner of the Engineering Biology Research Consortium (EBRC), a premier non-profit organization dedicated to advancing engineering biology to address societal challenges, expand knowledge, and promote responsible innovation. Through this partnership, SynBio4ALL collaborates closely with the Students and Postdocs Association (EBRC-SPA), a dynamic community of graduate students and postdoctoral researchers working in synthetic biology across top research institutions in the United States.

How EBRC-SPA Supports SynBio4ALL

Course Development & Delivery

Volunteers co-design and co-teach modules in synthetic biology, biotechnology, and bioinformatics, bringing global expertise to African classrooms. Instructors support both live sessions and pre-recorded content for our open-source programs.

Mentorship & Research Guidance

EBRC-SPA members mentor African students in project ideation, experimental design, coding, and data analysis, providing world-class scientific guidance.

Curriculum Enhancement

With firsthand experience in leading labs, volunteers help improve materials and suggest the latest tools, protocols, and learning approaches tailored to resource-limited environments.

Capacity Building & Networking

Volunteers connect students to academic, internship, and research opportunities beyond their local ecosystems, bridging them to the global synthetic biology community.

Shared Vision

Our collaboration with EBRC and EBRC-SPA is built on a shared vision: To make synthetic biology more inclusive, equitable, and globally representative. By combining SynBio4ALL’s grassroots, Africa-centered approach with EBRC’s scientific leadership and deep network of researchers, we enable a new generation of African innovators to access cutting-edge knowledge, mentorship, and tools.

Join Our Global Network

We are always looking to expand our collaborative network of research institutions, student associations, biotech startups, and nonprofits. If your organization shares our mission of democratizing synthetic biology and empowering underrepresented communities, we’d love to connect.
