Might be of interest to folks who can attend this free, in-person only event in Copenhagen (DTU), co-organised by @manulera
Registration deadline 5 September CEST
For those who can’t attend in-person, the pydna link (see below), also has full documentation and some example notebooks to work with too!
Join the pydna Hackathon — Copenhagen (DTU), Sept 11–12, 2025
Are you a wet lab scientist doing cloning or DNA engineering, or a bioinformatician curious about molecular biology? 
Passionate about Open Source and Open Science?
Learn how to use pydna, an open-source Python library for simulating DNA engineering workflows like PCR, cloning, and primer design.
Team up with fellow scientists and developers to build a notebook, script, pipeline, or mini-app that tackles your problems or a wider challenge in DNA engineering.
What can you build during the hackathon? Here are a couple of ideas to spark your imagination:
- A python notebook to automate the design of Gibson Assembly primers to clone genes into your favourite vector.
- A mini-app for designing cloning strategies for homologous recombination or CRISPR genome editing in your favourite organism.
Whether you’re new to Python or already a coding wizard, there’s a place for you!
