All fun and games at this year's CVR Summer BBQ! Regis served up delicious food, and we had quirky challenges like 'Who’s the fastest sequencer?' and 'Make up your own virus'. A perfect mix of science, laughter, and sunshine!

Had great fun at the Glasgow science Centre showing how DNA sequencing works using our Lego based GO-seq. Fantastic to see the imaginative new viruses the children sequenced too! @cvrinfo.bsky.social @cvrbioinfo.bsky.social @glasgowscience.bsky.social
