Open Hardware Microfluidics
What’s the point of having scientific and technological innovations when only a few can benefit from them? How can we make science more inclusive? Those questions are always in the back of my mind when we perform research in our laboratory, and we have a strong focus on the scientific accessibility of our developed methods from microfabrication to sensor development.
A Breakdown of the Global Open Science Hardware (GOSH) Movement
This seminar, hosted by the LIBRE hub project, will provide an in-depth introduction to the Global Open Science Hardware (GOSH) movement. Since its inception, GOSH has been instrumental in advancing open-source hardware within scientific research, fostering a diverse and active community. The seminar will cover the history of GOSH, its current initiatives, and future opportunities, with a particular focus on the contributions and activities of the Latin American branch. This session aims to inform researchers, educators, and policy-makers about the significance and impact of GOSH in promoting accessibility and collaboration in science instrumentation.
Toward globally accessible neuroimaging: Building the OSI2ONE MRI Scanner in Paraguay
The Open Source Imaging Initiative has recently released a fully open source low field MRI scanner called the OSI2ONE. We are currently building this system at the Universidad Paraguayo Alemana in Asuncion, Paraguay for a neuroimaging project at a clinic in Bolivia. I will discuss the process of construction, important considerations before you build, and future work planned with this device.
