Research @ Petri Dish
We support innovators looking to help fuel new research endeavors or contribute to open research projects.
​
To support our innovators, we created our format called the "Grand Project" to provide a structure for researchers to gain local support for their projects. Click here to find our format and email info@dmvpetridish.com if you're interested in starting one at Petri Dish!

Mission
Our mission is to support Neurofibromatosis research focused on finding therapeutics that can benefit cancers, and rare diseases like neurofibromatosis patients sooner rather than later. We do this by bringing together data scientists, bioinformaticians, and biologists together to create that combine knowledge of drug development processes with knowledge of bioinformatic and data processing systems.
​
Our secondary objectives for this project are to:
-
Promote cross-collaboration between biosciences and tech professionals by working towards common goals
-
Provide training opportunities for students and junior level researchers to gain additional research experience
-
Provide an opportunity for career changers to get experience in working in a biotech environment
