Competition Overview
SynBioNZ's BioSpark programme runs for six weeks during March–May 2027, with virtual participation or local hybrid teams. No laboratory work is required. Teams contain 3–6 people, and individuals may request team matching. The detailed schedule is tentative. Entry fees and final prize details are unconfirmed.
Entries were verified open on 30 October 2026; the original opening date is unpublished, so the displayed opening timestamp records verification. The source says midnight on 7 March 2027 without a timezone. This listing uses 11:59pm on 7 March in Auckland as a date convention; confirm the precise cutoff and apply early.

Open to undergraduate students at any New Zealand university, from any discipline. Register directly with SynBioNZ in a team of 3–6 or request individual matching. The organiser's 3–6-person allowance governs this external competition; CaseCrest does not manage its teams.
