i-Biohackathon 2026
Turn Biological Data into Real Solutions
Biology today is a data science. Using AI and bioinformatics, you'll take on two real-world challenges drawn from Malaysia's key food industries 鈥 protecting the oil palm from a costly pest, and decoding what makes prawns thrive. No wet lab required. Just your brain and a laptop.
Precision Agriculture
Use data and biotechnology to protect Malaysia's oil palm from the bagworm pest Metisa plana.
Precision Aquaculture
Decode why some prawns thrive while others stay stunted 鈥 the 鈥渏umper-laggard鈥 mystery.
One Mission. Four Tracks.
There's a track for every level of experience. Full task details are shared in a dedicated online briefing for registered participants.
