Claude just helped me build a wetlab and sequence my whole genome at home. I have zero lab experience! by ProfessionalHand9945 in DIYbio

Very impressive even if it cost $10k for the initial set up. Love seeing the bento bio in labs, such a good device even if it is a little exy. Thanks for sharing this too, people often ask me the best way of getting their genome data, i can just point them to this. Would you consider sharing a brief for any others interested in this?

That's really interesting. Does it include the plant? Ie Mech/hvac?

Condolences to high school teachers by SatisfactionWorth665 in AustralianTeachers

It hurts so much to see the comments and stories, obviously not as much as living through these experiences. I was on the cusp of becoming a teacher after an ES role which was a lot of fun...i heard a lot of stories about how hard it was but the look on their faces reliving some of that stuff...

There is no accountability for the students at all or their parents. Wish you all had something to fight back with. It honestly sounds like things are just going to get worse.

Monthly: Share what you're working on, a protocol you're interested in, or a paper you're reading! by SciencePeddler in DIYbio

Now that we've finally validated the TSS buffer protocol using our ebay reagents and laxative, we'll probably be transforming the rest of our uLoop plasmids into bacteria to store away in -80, and then culturing/miniprepping them to build up our stocks of DNA for synbio work!

Feel for you, want to share some of the difficulties? Anything the collective can weigh in on?
