Open Source Hardware for Accessible Directed Evolution Bioreactor

Conventional cell culturing in the lab can be a time and cost intensive process, limiting the application of advanced genetic engineering techniques like directed evolution and phage assisted continuous evolution. There is a growing need for bioreactor platforms for cell growth and lab experimentation. However, the market models are usually too expensive and do not have many customizable options. This introduces the need to develop an open source hardware for accessible directed evolution bioreactor.
