Arduino Workshop 001(What is Arduino? How to blink a built-in LED and how to use a button to control the LED), Interactive Media Arts Lab Tour, Biology Lab Safety Training, Biology Lab Tour
Skype meeting with Tristan, who is currently in the States, about our wiki page and final project prototype. Discussions on how to make editing the wiki accessible to everyone, the content of workshops, fundraising, and the coming conference at NCTU. Research on luciferase enzyme, oscillations, and rfc10.
Bioluminescence presentation given by Ann. Arduino with color sensor+RGB led testing. Research about oscillating systems from previous competitions. Specifics regarding the plasmids we will be implementing. Successfully booked four flights to Taiwan for NCTU Conference in July.
Skype testing with Tristan for tomorrow’s HTML workshop. Talking with Fudan University about setting up a workshop. Overall unproductive.
Tristan’s Workshop on HTML via Google Hangout, Reida’s Workshop on plasmids construction, June’s Workshop on penicillin. We also got meal vouchers provided by NYU Shanghai! Hurray!
We went to EXPLORIUM to hold a workshop with kids and taught them how to visualize their DNA collected from their mouth with detergent, salt, starch, and alcohol.
Misya’s presentation on E.chromi. IDT representatives visited our lab and showed us how to order DNA on the website. Introduction to transformation lab with arabinose, pGLO, nutrient broth, and ampicillin. Bio majors practiced lab skills and taught Interactive Media Arts majors how to do lab. It was fun! Let’s see if our E.coli can glow tomorrow!.
Spencer’s presentation on biological oscillators. The results of yesterday’s lab were kind of disappointing. GFP was not expressed and not visible under UV light. Most likely because of old agar plates. Bio majors tested our first transformation using a part from the kit (RFP generator) and made new agar plates. Bruno helped ZZ build our new color-tracking system with a web camera and Processing.
Bruno, Christian, and Xiaoyue’s workshop on Virtual Reality of the inside of cell with the help of Unity 3D. Got chance to experience the bacteria world with the brand-new and exciting tool. Also, Reida’s RFP plasmid transformation showed a fluorescence in one colony! Prep work for second transformation lab including CFP, RFP, and GFP.
Xiangxi’s presentation on mathematical modeling. Tristan’s Google Hangout workshop on Java/Animation in HTML. Bio majors made 54 LB agar plates with different concentrations of chloramphenicol resistances (12.5, 25, 34, 50 mg/ml).
Ann’s presentation on Mini-prep. Everyone did Mini-Prep lab. DAN Quantitation of Mini-Prep we did. Xiangci talked about developing Virtual Reality Project for Human Practice with Christian. Photo shoot for our wiki landing page!
Research about oscillation sequences. Meet up with Tongji (TJU), Jiaotong (SJTU), IDP students (Indonesia)
Reida’s presentation on Gel Electrophoresis and Gel Extraction. Lab prep for tomorrow’s Gel Extraction lab. Building up website. Analysis of the medal criteria.
Human Practice | Bioluminescence + Arduino Workshop in Kongjiang High School
Misya’s presentation on competent cells. Gel Electrophoresis Lab. Workshop about Bioluminescence, Arduino, and the integration of technology and biology in Kongjiang University as one of the series workshops that we are going to have in schools as human practice projects.
Spencer’s presentation on Art & Design track. Brainstormed more details of our project. pGLO glowed! Bio majors transformed luciferase generator parts from the kit.
