3D printing, custom microtiter plates, and sequencing 10,000 metagenomes
Patrik
has a great blog post up on his approach to sequencing 10,000
metagenomes at a time, using custom 3D printed 384-well microtiter
plates to normalize DNA dilutions. Check it out!

He's gotten to the point of actually printing some test molds on one
of the Makerbots at NoiseBridge in SF.
I think it would be really cool to invite him over to BioCurious some
time to talk about his project, and show off some of the hardware and
software he's been building!

"Patrik --
A decent, reasonably-priced benchtop liquid handling robot would be
fantastic. I will be teaching a research seminar this Winter Quarter
on laboratory robotics. Some undergraduates from the UC Davis Robotics
Club are going to build a couple of RepRaps using our printer, and
then will modify one of them to dispense water. Maybe other liquids,
too, depending on what design they come up with.
When I have something working, I'd love to come by and demo it!"

models on Thingiverse, not the custom-depth ones. The link is in his
