[sudo-discuss] Open Source PCR Hack Night - 7pm Tues 10th Sept in Downtown Oakland (Sudo Room)

[Ryan Bethencourt]

Dear All,

We are VERY pleased to be able to announce the first of our Open Source 
DIY Bio lab equipment hack nights: The Open Source PCR hacknight. The 
upcoming hack night will be focused on building an open source PCR, we 
currently have a prototype which cycles but if you have a PCR you're 
working on please feel free to bring it as well and work alongside us 
and please feel free to invite friends and also forward to anyone you 
may feel is interested!

This event will be run in conjunction with OMGBio and the Micro 
Controller Hack night (run by Hol) at Sudo Room.

The overview of the evening will include:
Principles of PCR
Principles of Temperature Control

Aims are to get temperature cycling of 1C per second with accurate 
measurements at the current rated power

We'll be using Peltier for cooling and we'll be using Nicrom wire for 
heating (although this is up for discussion). If you have any questions 
please feel free to contact Ryan, Marc or Hol!

All the best,
Ryan
