Oportunidades de Investigación Públicas

22-06-2024 Diseño y configuración de un MVP de un instrumento de microfluidos libre para la generación de gotas.
Ya hemos lanzado un microscopio estroboscópico de microfluidos de fabricación digital (https://wenzel-lab.github.io/strobe-enhanced-microscopy-stage/), pero muchas extensiones se encuentran aún en fase de prototipo (por ejemplo, https://github.com/wenzel-lab/modular-microfluidics-workstation-controller) y necesitan integrarse en un diseño limpio y atractivo que sea adecuado para su uso en un laboratorio de nivel 2 de seguridad biológica. También desarrollamos documentaciones detalladas para la replicación y material de formación para la enseñanza y la investigación.

13-06-2022 Hardware libre para la deposición gotas microfluídicas
La clasificación de gotitas microfluídicas permite el manejo experimental de millones de experimentos de biología molecular en un día. Para seguir cultivando las células en gotitas, es necesario recogerlas e individualizarlas, lo que puede hacerse en una placa de pocillos o en una placa de cultivo. En este proyecto, el objetivo es desarrollar un sistema de deposición de gotas de este tipo utilizando métodos de creación de prototipos, ejemplos de la literatura y libre hardware.

Public Research Opportunities

22-06-2024 Design and arrangement of a MVP of an open source microfluidics instrument for pressure driven droplet generation.
We have already released a digitally-fabricated microfluidics strobe microscope (https://wenzel-lab.github.io/strobe-enhanced-microscopy-stage/) but many extensions are still at a prototyping stage (e.g. https://github.com/wenzel-lab/modular-microfluidics-workstation-controller) and need to be integrated into a clean, attractive design that is suitable for the use in a biological safety level 2 laboratory. We also develop detailed documentations for replication, and training material for teaching and research.
Prerequisites:  None.

11-12-2022 Optimisation of an automated stage to deposit microfluidic droplets for bio applications
Microfluidic droplet sorting allows the experimental handling of millions of molecular biology experiments in one day. To further culture cells in droplets, they need to be collected and individualised, which can be done in a well plate or culture plate. In this project, the aim is to optimise such a droplet deposition system using prototyping methods, examples from the literature and software development in python.
Prerequisites:  None.

19-07-2021 Development of an open hardware based wide field computational microscope for pollen recognition
Development of a working low-cost computational wide-field microscope for honey-pollen imaging (remotely at home) and analysis of generated data with MatLab or Python. A 3D printed prototype already exsists based on the publication 'Low-cost, sub-micron resolution, wide-field computational microscopy using opensource hardware’. Students should already have basic experience with prototyping and coding.
