Fab Lab
Galileo allegedly said, "Measure what is measurable, and make measurable what is not so". Following his advice, every once in a while, we turn our lab into a FabLab where we collectively design and build wet lab instrumentation using free and open-source software and open-source hardware.
We've built incubators, laminar hoods, chemostats, syringe pumps, image acquisition systems and hacked pipetting robots and 3D printers to extrude cells.
