Hi Folks,
This is a quick announcement that my new (5 months) DIYBio Group in San Diego is officially open for business. We are called THE WET LAB - A DIYBIO GROUP FOR ALGAE RESEARCH and are housed with generous support from Fab Lab. We meet weekly on Wednesday evenings.  Today we are focused on algae research but will expand as we grow. We have 50+ members to date.  Feel free to join our group HERE and find our Google Group where we are sharing ideas and research HERE.  We have great support from Biosurplus and are accumulating wet lab equipment.  We have another warehouse where we will set up a temporary wet lab to test equipment and get things organized so that we can do synbio experiments on algae in the next few months. FYI, today we are building bioreactors for growing algae, wiring sensors and electronics, teaching about algae and molecular biology, testing cells, and studying scientific papers.

Come join us!
Thanks
Cameron

Very cool, I'm doing some work on "Blue-Green" Algae (cyanobacteria) over in Boston. 

I'll look forward to some cross-coast collaboration.

Cheers,
Will Sutton

That would be great.  I am also raising money for research on algae for bioremediation and biopolymers for my non-profit www.bluenomad.org.  I would like to put some of those funds into the DIYBio community, so check in with me offline if you are interested. Research can be conducted anywhere.
Thanks
Cameron

Great to have more interest in algae farming in the community. We're running a Spirulina reactor in our lab and conduct a workshop this Thursday https://waag.org/nl/event/dit-bio-9-super-foods-air-purifying-plants

If there is also interest on your side on developing an open source reactor controller, please feel free to contact me.
