Genes in Space

Annual competition

Deadline passed

Genes in Space is an annual competition that challenges high school students to design original experiments exploring genetics and biology in the context of space exploration. Students develop detailed research proposals with the support of mentors and scientific resources, competing for the chance to have their experiment conducted aboard the International Space Station. The competition follows a structured timeline of applications, judging, and award announcements, giving participants real experience in scientific thinking and proposal writing. It is one of the most extraordinary opportunities available to young scientists, offering the rare possibility of sending their ideas into orbit.
