"With "Gene Express" we present a playful approach to the complex biological process of gene expression: The boardgame is geared towards players of (almost) all age groups and can be played independently of any prior knowledge in Biology. Step by step players get to experience the distinct phases of gene expression – including the competition about resources and other sometimes unexpected challenges. So while the players are trying to produce proteins as fast and efficiently as possible, they also get to know about the well orchestrated mechanisms underlying many bioogical processes."
