What's the platform? Can we beta test it or is it launched?

Re: [DIYbio] DIY COVID-19 PCR test

2:09 PM |

Absolutely disagree on the relative risk of surface swabbing. Presumably if individuals are passing through the areas that they are swabbing they are picking up these pathogens on their hands anyway. The additional risk of swabbing is negligible. Back in the lab, the samples have to be presumed to to be infectious, but no amplification of the entire virus is occurring. The PCR step is amplifying only a portion of the envelope. Slight risk of aerosolizing the particles, but nowhere near the risk of an individual who is infected aerosolizing particles just by breathing, let alone coughing.

Re: [DIYbio] DIY COVID-19 PCR test

8:24 AM |

Hi Maria,
Great questions here. For those catching up, Maria hosted a Wuhan Virus Co-Learning Hackathon on Feb 1st, plus she's the president of BioCurious so she has lots of firsthand experience here. I just posted another thread to share out insights from those 2 events here.

What is the value of community labs in a COVID-19 world?

Maria and Jonathan Cline above make great points about the challenges of working with samples.

Perhaps the biggest outcome is that everyone decides *not* to work on this at a PCR level and each lab does a blog post on it. Or spend energies elsewhere like working on the genome virtually, software to map spread of the virus like http://outbreak.cc/, building/testing sterilization protocols, hygiene inventions like copper infused gloves, testing out DIY face mask designs. Lots of possibilities here.

Tito

[DIYbio] OpenCell, BioCurious: Results from COVID-19 Virtual Hackathons?

8:01 AM |

Hi,

When Thomas from OpenCell announced its COVID-19 virtual hackathon here on January 21st there were 415 cases worldwide. 

415 cases, who cares? At that point COVID-19 seemed kind of on the fringe, back when it was called the Wuhan coronavirus.

Today, 39 days later, COVID-19 is no longer on the fringe. Today there are tens of thousands of documented cases, and 2,933 documented deaths.

Huge props to the OpenCell team including Thomas Meany, and the BioCurious team including Maria Chavez for hosting these virtual hackathons so early on.

Maria, Thomas, and attendees, could you please share out how the events went? I'm imagining a lot of discussion and questions, probably not much action coming out of it but that's ok. Your early experience with this will be very helpful to others who follow in your example. 

I'm curious about:
  • What kind of questions did people discuss?
  • A month later, did the event spark any actions?
  • Got a recording to share?
I imagine pretty much every community lab will be thinking about doing something related. When I saw Maria's comments in the PCR thread about asking the right questions, I wanted to get feedback from people who have already hosted events.

Also to both of you, what's next?

OpenCell hosted a virtual meetup on Jan 26th: https://www.opencell.bio/biohackathons
BioCurious did a virtual hackathon/co-learning event on Feb 1st: https://www.meetup.com/BioCurious/events/268159598/
Shenzhen Open Innovation Lab (SZOIL) just announced Hack for Wuhan (https://www.bagevent.com/event/6368833)

Re: [DIYbio] DIY COVID-19 PCR test

2:59 AM |

To be clear I am in no way advocating testing of possible infected individuals in a community lab setting.

My primary goal here is to do environmental testing. Right now there is a lot of fear around this virus and there is a high likelihood that it is not yet present in most of our communities. I fear by the time it is actually present that response fatigue will have set in and people will have become more lax in self-protection. With the long latency period, while virus is being shed, it is likely that sampling of public banisters, buses, etc. may show evidence of community spread of the virus prior to showing active cases in any particular area. This would be an indication of the need to take stronger self-protective measures or at least get an updated "go to the hospital and get tested if you're ill" message out there.

In terms of primers and evidence of their working, during the initial calibration of the test I expect will have to spread some of the positive control on surfaces in the lab and see if they can be picked up, sensitivity, etc.

In terms of safety considerations, I think that this is helpful to public safety and the safety of individuals involved in the effort. Since we are discussing sampling of public spaces that are generally presumed safe, or at least safe pending mitigation such as frequent hand washing, it would seem that no additional safety risk is presented. And the act of sampling itself increases awareness of the possible vectors for infection. If we included primers for something more common, rhinovirus for instance, that we could expect to see in many places it would further the awareness of which surfaces tend to promote contagion.

It would be great if there were a test that people could do at home if they felt that they were infected, but as noted above that could have nothing to do with infected individuals or their samples entering a community lab. One approach that is promising is the dipstick-based isothermal amplification approach coming out of the Zhang lab. https://www.broadinstitute.org/files/publications/special/COVID-19%20detection%20(updated).pdf

In terms of links, I am collecting others and will update but here are a couple of the sources I mentioned:


and a couple different kit approaches:

BioCurious, OpenCell and Derek's pioneering efforts in trying to contribute to understanding and fighting Covid-19 need to be continued and this crisis is an important opportunity to mobilize safely our community around it.

Re: [DIYbio] DIY COVID-19 PCR test

11:22 PM |

This is a terrible idea.  No one in a DIY community should be actively going within 50' of someone who wants a covid swab test.  This is a highly contagious virus.  It is not something you want to do for the LoL's or the rep's.  The first medical doctor (and others, probably) who treated patients in China is now dead himself.  It is not something you want to do in a community environment, where, once you are infected from the DIY patient solicitations, you also infect others in the ad hoc unprotected community lab, since you may not show outward symptoms for a week or more.  Do some critical thinking, eh?   This is not the DIY project you are looking for.

Let me know if you like this idea and if yes, we can start documenting the projects on JOGL and mobilize people around them.

Re: [DIYbio] DIY COVID-19 PCR test

4:42 PM |

Hey Derek,

So I did a mental walk through of doing some RT PCR sort of testing but there are many big question for me.

-  what value does this give?  The two reasons for testing is to identify it for treatment and containment.  Community labs dont have the ability to treat or training in dealing with people with positive infections who might come in so it could make them a place highly likely to put the community lab members at risk, for epidemiology its needed to have central tracking so where does this data go to?
- are the primers any good? I know the WHO tests seem to the better ones, the CDC initial test was a multi disease test that didnt work right so they are in the midst of switching systems, and need to centralize where the data is kept for tracking of outbreaks.  
- What are the possibilities for safety considerations?

Overall I want to find ways for the DIY bio community to serve their communities during such times but I also want to make sure we keep ourselves and communities safe.  

Thoughts on this?

Re: [DIYbio] DIY COVID-19 PCR test

Hi there from Paris, France,

Great initiative! 
I'd love to help organize a community of contributors aiming to design a DIY 2019-nCoV diagnosis test. I'm a biologist myself (been in this beautiful community for 11 years now (: ) and I'm running an open source platform called Just One Giant Lab (JOGL.io) whose goal is to (1) facilitate the creation and documentation of open scientific research projects and to (2) connect impactful projects to volunteering contributors who possess relevant skills. 

I also believe we should start organizing our DIYbio community around this very goal and research various ways to provide DIY/cheap 2019-nCoV testing abilities and methodologies that are well documented and that can be reviewed by the international community too. 

Let me know if you like this idea and if yes, we can start documenting the projects on JOGL and mobilize people around them.

Re: [DIYbio] DIY COVID-19 PCR test

I work in the industry as a surplus bio/genetic equipment supplier. I was checking out the CDC recommendations and kits available for corona virus identification and it looks like older ABI equipment, such as the 9700 silver and gold thermal cyclers and the ABI 7500 Fast Analyzers are going to be in demand for this testing. It's funny because these are practically antiques now, and supply is very limited. I don't see much progress towards a vaccine until late this year... so be ready; there will be quite a demand in detection of this new pandemic.        Jerry, CSI Sonora California

Anyone else curious about this?

BioCurious did a hackathon/co-learning event 4 weeks ago (https://www.meetup.com/BioCurious/events/268159598/). Also saw the post about OpenCell (https://www.opencell.bio/biohackathons). Shenzhen Open Innovation Lab (SZOIL) just announced Hack for Wuhan (https://www.bagevent.com/event/6368833).

[DIYbio] The best books for a begginer

4:33 PM |

Hi Ulisses,
If your just starting out on a specific topic, I would recommend purchasing or renting a textbook by an educational company like Pearson or McGraw Hill. If you go into their website, they have a catalog for higher education textbooks. Most of their textbooks are very explanatory and contain loads of great information and illustrations for reference. Some of their books are a little pricy, but there are plenty of used book websites that you can order textbooks from. Some of which are Chegg, Abe books, books a million, thriftbooks, etc.

For a bio lab that's focused on bio materials (nothing advanced), what tools do you think should be provided, and if it's a non profit, any ideas how we should proceed to get them?

Saiba mais sobre nossos Termos de Serviço atualizados

3:31 PM |

Google
Estamos melhorando nossos Termos de Serviço para que eles sejam mais fáceis de entender. As mudanças entrarão em vigor em 31 de março de 2020 e não terão nenhum impacto na maneira como você usa os serviços do Google.
Para mais detalhes, fornecemos um resumo das principais mudanças e respondemos às Perguntas frequentes. Na próxima vez que você acessar o Google, poderá revisar e aceitar os novos Termos. Em resumo, isto é o que essa atualização significa para você:
• Entendimento facilitado: ainda que se trate de um documento jurídico, fizemos o melhor possível para facilitar o entendimento dos nossos Termos, incluindo links para informações úteis e fornecendo definições.
• Comunicação melhorada: explicamos claramente quando faremos mudanças nos nossos serviços, como adição e remoção de um recurso, e quando o acesso de um usuário será restringido ou encerrado. Além disso, faremos o possível para notificar você quando uma mudança impactar negativamente sua experiência nos nossos serviços. Também descrevemos como os pedidos de divulgação de dados são respondidos, por exemplo, solicitações de agências governamentais.
• Inclusão do Google Chrome, Chrome OS e Drive nos Termos: agora, nossos Termos melhorados se aplicam ao Google Chrome, Chrome OS e Drive. Esses serviços também possuem termos e políticas específicos para ajudar você a entender o que é exclusivo de cada um deles.
• Nenhuma mudança na nossa Política de Privacidade: não estamos mudando nada na Política de Privacidade do Google e não mudamos a forma como tratamos suas informações. Você pode acessar sua Conta do Google sempre que quiser para revisar suas configurações de privacidade e gerenciar como seus dados são utilizados.
Se você for responsável por uma criança abaixo da idade necessária para gerenciar a própria Conta do Google e você usar o Family Link para gerenciar o uso dos serviços do Google, observe que ao aceitar os novos Termos, você também os aceita em nome dessa criança, então recomendamos conversar com ela sobre as mudanças.
Além disso, caso você não concorde com os novos Termos e o que é esperado de ambas as partes ao usar os serviços, veja mais informações sobre suas opções nas nossas Perguntas frequentes.
Agradecemos por usar os serviços do Google.
