Have a Benchling topic that didn’t make it onto the formal Benchtalk agenda? 

We’ve got you covered. Open Notebooks is a new way to participate at Benchtalk 2025—a science fair-style poster showcase happening during lunch on Day 2. It's casual, low-lift, and a good way to share the things you’ve built in Benchling that others might find useful (or inspiring).

No slides, no stage—just you, a poster or short demo, and the chance to connect with others who geek out over the same stuff.

Some reasons to consider it:

• You’ve built something in Benchling that solved a problem (even a small one)

• You want to swap ideas with folks working on similar challenges

• You like the idea of sharing what you’ve done—without a whole formal presentation

• You want to attend Benchtalk, but your company will only approve travel to conferences you’re presenting at

We’ll help with templates, design, or setup if you need it. Just bring your idea.

Now that the full agenda is live, if there’s a topic you don’t see on the list but want to talk about—this is a great way to add it in.
