Post Lab Questions | Mandatory for All Students

One of the great parts about having an automated robot is being able to precisely mix, deposit, and run reactions without much intervention. This year, a greater emphasis will be placed on utilizing the Opentrons to accelerate your final projects.

For this week, we’d like for you to do the following

  1. Write a description about what you intend to do with automation tools for your final project. You may include example pseudocode or Python scripts, procedures you may need to automate, 3D printed holders you may need, and more.
  2. Find and describe a published paper that utilizes the Opentrons or similar automation tools to achieve novel biological applications (eg automated PACE)

While your idea doesn’t need to be set in stone, we would like to see core details of what you would automate. This is due right before class and does not need to be tested on the Opentrons for now.

Example: You are creating a custom fabric, and want to deposit art onto specific parts that need to be intertwined in odd ways. You can design a 3D printed holder to attach this fabric to it, and be able to deposit bio art on top. Check out the Opentrons 3D Printing Directory.

REASON:

It doesn't have a meaning as such. I'm not very expert in this so from the beginning I decided to make a geometric figure to be able to understand the pattern of the factors to make the drawing. I think that a cross, depending on the area you see it, represents many things. It can be religious, mathematical, insiparous or a snowflake, with the green lines coming out diagonally.
