In “The Biotech Game of Life,” which is similar to the Game of Life, each player is a scientist attempting to successfully bring his or her biotechnology product to the market. During the game, players will face many obstacles before obtaining a successful product and the first one to accomplish this wins. Below are the instructions, which provides more details on the game, and links to the game board and play money (pdf files). Note, that like the real thing, it is quite challenging to finish the game.To add more content to this activity, you can have students conduct reserach on their assigned ¨idea¨ from the beginning of the game.  I have them conduct the research and share out with their classmates about their topic BEFORE we start to play the game.  Additionally, at the end of the game, you can have them conduct research on regulations and trials currently impacting the biotechnology industry.
