"Flower in a Test Tube" is an innovative project that creates a new product using plant biotechnology. But it does more than that—it tells a story about the power of the human mind and heart. The idea comes from Petar Neftelimov, a young man born with cerebral palsy. In 2020, while studying biotechnology at the Faculty of Biology at the Sofia University ''St. Kliment Ohridski'', he came up with the idea of creating flowers in test tubes using the Micropropagation (in vitro cultivation) method of plants.
Four molecular biology students joined the project. According to the team, this is a way to present science to people in an interesting and entertaining way. They received program funding to the tune of 15,000 BGN (EUR 7.500) and dedicated their efforts to finding a lab where they could bring the idea to life.
Later, a company was founded to distribute "Flower in a Test Tube" in practice. Over the past five years, Petar Neftelimov's idea has been drawing steady interest from both private individuals and corporate clients.
