2 years ago Hi Jeremy,
thanks a lot for contacting me!
Yes, my TUM address is not working anymore, since I have also moved from academia to a new job in industry.
Yeahhah, cool :) This was actually my motivation for designing OpenWorkstation and making the files open source. I also had a quick look at the slides and the video. Yes, this would be an ideal application for the OpenWorkstation approach if you want to add more modules to increase throughput, flexibility, automation, etc.
At the moment, I am timewise very limited and Friday is already tomorrow. Therefore, I am not sure if I can provide you with any feedback on the proposal. Of course, you can reference the project and let me know if you need any additional images. In terms of a future collaboration, thanks a lot for asking! Unfortunately, I moved from academia to industry, and this does not allow me to work on this project anymore. I dedicate some time from time to time and, therefore, I cannot commit for being named a collaborator. If you want, you can list me as a supporter or adviser and we could have some calls. Would this also work for you?
All the best for the proposal!
Best,
Sebastian

Hi there,
This is Jeremy from Team Friendzymes reaching out regarding potential collaboration on a project involving adaptation of your OpenWorkstation platform. We intend to submit a proposal, this Friday, for a GOSH Collaborative Development grant to develop a colony picking pipeline. Would you be interested in joining such a proposal as a collaborator?
The proposal will likely proceed in two phases: first, converting FluoPi images of colonies on agar plates into coordinates of those colonies within the plates, that could then be fed to an OT-2 bot that performs the picking; and second, adapting an OpenWorkstation with a sterilization/cutting/wash module and a 3D-printing head with cuttable filament or a retractable metal filament/rod to perform colony picking in a way that doesn't waste a pipette tip for every colony. (We are in contact with FluoPi developers and have multiple labs equipped with OT-2s via Opentrons sponsorship.)
Friendzymes' mission is to democratize biotechnology. Toward that end, our primary goals are to democratize strain engineering and recombinant protein manufacturing and purification – more on that here (slides) and here (video).
(Contacting you via github because of trouble with your TUM email.)
