We learned all about their project and gave a presentation about ours! We were also planning to give a demonstration of our hardware, but unfortunately due to technical issues we weren\’t able to set up our microscope properly. Lesson learnt: make the microscope easier to assemble on the go and more reliable. .</div>')); | ||

The project is heating up and we set up a division of labour for the coming week. Ordered RFP imaging equipment and we should hopefully have a fully working prototype by the end of the week! .</div>')); | ||
