Hello Boston DIYBIO!!!
If you are interested in building your own gel system as detailed
here, let me know. I would be happy to throw a workshop where everyone builds and takes home their own gel system. It would be a flat $200 per person, and I would be there in person to make sure it all goes smoothly. Probably in mid-december. Reply if interested!
