Nice idea! (and very soon you have 1000s of startup ideas ;-))

My point is not about having the cheapest solution. I just don't trust anyone else with my genomic information, even if they say it's anonymous. (I'm a biotech engineer, from Europ…

At some point, I would love to setup something like this but then completely local and open-source. This could e.g. include a sequencing kit (Nanopore MinION sequencer (<$ 1,000) p…

I can recommend checking out https://openepaperlink.de/ . It's a project to repurpose e-ink electronic shelf labels (in various sizes, ranging from 1.54" to 7.4"). I have been play…

Yeah, good point - don't know. When I tried I actually did get a (personal?) email saying that it didn't match closely enough. After uploading another sample (based on a different …

When I tried this service previously, you had to read (out loud) something saying that you were giving consent.

Some wonderful music from Bach, his Weihnachtsoratorium (2.5 hours): https://open.spotify.com/album/48eINR6FEINQEvDTrbig9X

There are indeed a few practical applications. Next to Berkely lights, there is e.g. the LabChip from PerkinElmer that separates DNA and proteins. I had hoped that there would be m…

In the biotech field is indeed quite common to refer to microbes as bugs. Thanks for reminding that this is ambiguous outside the field!

Just a random thought (lived both in the US and in the EU): could it be that US ovens are more often gas ovens while in the EU it's mostly electric? (might be easier to get higher …

Another useful resource is hadolint ( https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint ), which not only gives additional recommendations, but also a way to enforce this.

Are you interested in salary ranges in the US and/or NL?

What about some MOOCS? There are plenty that will introduce you to this area.

I think this depends a bit on the area. I work in the field of metabolic engineering (i.e. engineering microbes to make new products). When I worked at a biotech company in the Bay…

I don't think so, as alcohol is not degraded via P450 enzymes..

This isn't a scientific study of course, but still I do miss the negative reference (i.e. without any detergent). Additionally, it would be nice to quantify the 'cleanness' of a ru…

I'm wondering whether that's indeed the case. It seems that at least some genotype has been identified to cause such a phenotype ( https://science.sciencemag.org/content/346/6213/1…

Does anyone know why sequencing is not used to QC such seeds before releasing them?

> I see a ton of founders and funders with zero biology background thinking that they have the vision and can just hire biology expertise. Genuinely curious about your data here. T…

You're right that you don't need CRISPR for genome engineering of S. cerevisiae (baker's yeast) or E. coli. However, having worked with both prokaryotes and eukaryotes it definitel…

Wow. That's pretty cool! Bummer that nothing comes up when you search for logosear.?ch ;-).
