Hi Hacker News! OP here. We are a few biohackers/synthetic biologists from MIT and UCSC. We are launching a Synthetic Biology course, where our goal is to prepare those who want to pursue synbio projects all the skills and tools necessary to realize their vision.

We are offering an early-bird discount for the online course. If you have any questions please reach out to contact@synbioschool.com

Thanks and happy to answer any questions!

I believe this could work but the website lacks samples (is it better than wikipedia, youtube videos and other tutorials ?) and a proof of authority (what makes you guys experts in the field). For 500$ you need to have a better idea of what you are buying.
