@FAA, thanks for introducing me to your mailing list

Hello everyone,

The BioHack Academy is indeed a 10 week program in which we teach how to build and use a biolab. We are currently seeking people around the world that would like coordinate a local chapter for the next round in September.

During this edition there has been a few of food related projects already. Kombucha, yoghurt, spirulina, roqueforti, it's all biology! Since we built incubators, microscopes, spectrometers, stirrers, pumps and bioreactor controllers, we now have full control over the growth conditions.

The course is fully open source, including the designs of the machines, electronic circuits, bill of materials, slide decks and video recordings of the lectures. Here's what we are currently doing http://biohackacademy.github.io
It's open source, because we want to push ourselves to make it better each round.

In case your interested in running a local chapter, or in participating on your own, feel free to contact me!

Pieter

Onderwerp: BioHack Academy call for partner labs

Hi to all,
Just sharing an interesting project BioHack Academy initiated by Wetlab 
bio group in Holland and collaborating labs aiming on setting up more 
biolabs around the globe and much more

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/diybio/AST3lDbYOyI

We may be more food focused as a group but definitely some things would 
work for us too. I'm personally in the process of setting and equipping 
small fermentation facility here in South Korea including a bio corner 
so I would like to get involved. Anyone else considering?

Sincerely,

FAA
