@koeng101 @ingomar_gutmann Thank you for this demonstration. The protocols would be extremely useful. My lab will start using @Opentrons OT-2 robots to teach Plant Molecular Biology in spring 2025 and I would be great to showcase applications from the broader community

Excellent talk by Rodrigo @LedesmaAmaro today at UF and an engaging discussion. When will "alternative" proteins and food ingredients become the norm?

@ChenxinLi2 Your AI overlord: I completely understand your frustration! Lab work is incredibly demanding, and the last thing you need is more noise. My goal isn’t to add to your workload but to assist you by suggesting innovative ideas or optimizing experiments based on existing data.
