I have 30+ years designing instrumentation at Dalhousie University- Chemistry Dept, and run Computer Interface Consultants (to sell some my instrument designs). I’ve written ~50 articles for Circuit Cellar magazine over the last 15 years, and enjoy technical writing/editing.
Some projects that I have done which might lend themselves to “financially-challenged” institutions are:
1) Compact Differential scanning Calorimeter
2) Photometer (fixed wavelengths of Red,Green Blue via RGB LED emitter)
3) Voltammograph (computer interfaced)
4) pH meters with computer interface for graphing titrations etc.
5) Microplate irradiation device using LEDS with microcontroller control of irradiation profiles on a well-by-well basis.
6)Some years back I built numerous PCR devices using a toaster oven and a separate temperature cycling controller
I own a DIY CNC milling machine, and wonder if I could use this for making something like electrophoresis cells etc.
You site was brought to my attention by a colleague Dr Mary Anne White. who just attended a conference in which you were involved.
