You take on the role of a new employee in a pharmaceutical company researching the deadly outbreak caused by an unknown pathogen. Use your puzzle skills to master computational tools in a bioinformatics program called VIRIDAE (Viral Identification and Analysis Engine). Analyze the genome of the pathogen with your pipeline to determine its origin and identify the genetic variation that made it so deadly. Each tool you master will help you ‘filter’ genomic information to find answers in the data.

In this simulation, a team of astronauts has a space mission, and for the trip they must carry the right food. Therefore, you, as a biologist who is part of the team, must analyze some species of vegetables in different types of crops, identifying which one has the highest cell growth, so that this is the vegetable that the astronauts take on their space trip. Remember to use all your understanding of mathematical operations to find this crop, and complete this challenge successfully.
