Welcome to the wiki of the Hackuarium association, an open public community lab, which wishes to democratise research! <br><br>
 
At Hackuarium, we want to bring biology (and biologists) to the world, and the real world back to biology. Our laboratory is an excuse to meet and discuss, build and develop ideas in a neutral, open, noncompetitive and not-for-profit environment.<br>
 
  
This page was launched during our [[1st Ever Hackuarium Wiki Sprint]] that took place on 7 December 2014. As you might notice quickly, almost everything here is work-in-progress, even though '''this adventure has already been going on over 7 years'''! <br> (Hackuarium's official 'birthday' btw is 13Aug2014.) <br>

'''BIG NEWS:''' <br>Winter is coming, but we recently celebrated [https://actu.epfl.ch/news/venez-feter-le-7e-anniversaire-de-hackuarium/ 7 years of Hackuarium, with a special #OH event on 6oct]! <br>Thanks for those we saw there!  Wonderful to see not only new friends in Ecublens, but old ones!
 
 
Just [[7thbday gallery|great to see you in real life]], on a fall evening! 
 
 
We are also working to [[SimpleEntryDraft|update this wiki]] and to finally send off the official request to become an official public service organisation!
 
 
<br> [[File:Virion.png |75px|thumb|right|]]'''Open Science''' and '''Participatory Research''' are '''hot!''' <br>  Nonetheless, <br>Make the World more Safe by getting Vaccinated, if you haven't yet.<br>  ''To avoid getting or spreading around Covid-19, the disease caused by'' SARS CoV-2:<br> 1) Wash hands, especially before you touch your face. <br>2) Wear a mask when you can't keep physically distant from others. <br>3) Be responsible about trace-ability and keeping quarantine if you are in contact with anyone who has tested positive for the virus.
 
<br>
 
Hackuarium can be found at Route de Crochy 20, 1024 Ecublens
 
<br>
 
With its P1 lab on the southern side with three sets of windows, and the 'inner lab' for fluorescence, bioilluminescence, and some chemistry, Hackuarium is well set up. The context of the cooperative we formed, esp with members of Octanis and Polymeka (plus a few startups*), means possibilities for exploring and making in this peaceful corner of Ecublens are virtually endless! <br>
 
<br>
 
TO NOTE: <br>1) This fabulous [https://goo.gl/maps/R9i8bf8dHBkAJePJ6 location], by the Crochy metro stop, even, is unfortunately already destined for destruction, so we are on the look out for a new space! <br>    ***    '''(''Please pass on any leads you might have in this regard.'')'''<br>
 
2) This wiki page is currently - June 2020 - being edited for the first time since dec2019!  ''looking forward to members adding some more info for 2020''. <br>
 
3) Have a look at our [[Activity Report 2021]]
 
<br>
 
Everyone is welcome to our weekly [[Open Hackuarium]] meetings, continuing every Wednesday (still possibly virtually, in case of covid-19 incidence) 20:00-22:00 (contact us to rsvp and potentially for the zoom link at 'hello'(at)hackuarium (dot)ch *)<br>
 
<br>Support for our aims to democratise science can come in many forms, but active membership is of course the most fun for 'do-it-together' research... <br>

<br> [[File:Virion.png |75px|thumb|right|]]<p>'''Welcome to Hackuarium, a community lab association in Switzerland,''' where we explore biology, science and technology.  
DIYbio (Do-It-Yourself biology) is a movement that wants to free the practice of biological research and innovation from the institutional and industrial laboratories. Pursued both by amateurs and professional biologists, DIYbio is developing low-cost and low-tech solutions to problems identified by the community.

We actually believe more and more in doing '''DIT (Do-It-Together) Research''', not just 'DIYbio,' as this seems much better for Open Science, and reflects better the scope of the trans-disciplinary projects we do (often not only biology). Another term people like to use is DIWO (Do It With Others).<br>

For [http://wiki.hackuarium.ch/w/History2019 some History], you know what to do... ;) <br>
+
''Hackuarium est une association à but non lucratif visant à démocratiser la science par l'engagement du public.''
To make a long story short, Hackuarium '''found a new home''' with some like minds (yay!) in Ecublens, for the moment, at least, and surviving almost 2 pandemic years, already... <br>
 
Our cooperative ([[Space Alliance Coopérative]]) with two other associations ([[Octanis]] & [[Polymeka]]) and a few other startups came together to look for a new place to call home and provide space for everyone's projects and work. Our first activities at Route de Crochy 20 started in February 2019.
 
  
<br>
+
''Nos laboratoires à Ecublens (Suisse) sont ouverts à toute personne partageant les valeurs de l'association et s'engageant à suivre les directives éthiques de DIYbio Europe.''
  
=Where are we located?=
+
''Nos projets sont initiés et menés à bien par des scientifiques et des non-scientifiques issus d'horizons divers. Nos membres sont passionnés par le bricolage en biologie en particulier, et en technologie en général. Certains sont ingénieurs, architectes, designers, informaticiens ou professionnels à la retraite, mais d'autres n'ont aucune formation scientifique. Ce sont surtout des personnes intéressées par la recherche et l'innovation ouvertes et participatives, en dehors des contraintes des institutions traditionnelles.''
  
'''Route de Crochy 20, CH-1024 Écublens, Switzerland''' (Ouest lausannois, m1 Crochy)<br>
+
''Les membres de l'Hackuarium veulent étudier de nouvelles façons de mener des recherches interdisciplinaires et d'innover, en rendant leurs résultats ouverts, accessibles (à faible coût), simples et facilement reproductibles (low-tech) et en promouvant une philosophie open source.''
The overall map of the new space is shown to the right, with the new Hackuarium located primary in two rooms (marked with our little purple '''open science octopus''' logo). [[File:Crochy20Ecublens - spaceallocsmallerb15may19.png|400px|thumb|right| map of the space]] <br>
 
The '''biolab''' is located in a south facing room of over 22m2, with three windows and a linoleum floor. <br>
 
We also have a so-called ''''inner sanctum'''' without windows, that is mainly for electronics and chemistry work, but can also be used for some biology studies, especially higher resolution microscopy (also with a Raspberry Pi camera on the old Zeiss scope, and with the option to try the OpenFlexure :) and bioluminescence studies, but growth of cultures is not allowed in this space. <br>
 
(there is a carpet!)  <br>
 
There are also other Hackuarium 'assets' around the corner from the biolab, shown as purple rectangles on the map and including the sterile hood and the ultracentrifuge.  A closet also contains a great deal of consumables and other labware.  (We welcome project ideas that will use some of this! :)
 
  
In November 2021 hopes to get one more space (esp for biomaterials, art and the kids' club) were growing, as AELER is planning to leave, and their back room even has a hole for attaching the special fume hood...  (Fingers crossed that it works!  ''Seems we at least need more of our members to pay their abonnements regularly, even though we have a policy of not asking about these, except once a year ! =P'' )<br>
+
<h1>''Menu de navigation'' / Navigation menu</h1>
'''To note once more: this building is really only a provisional space, as it is destined for destruction in the next 3-5 years!''' <br>
 
We will continue to look for a more permanent space, while developing our community further and promoting Open Science! <br>
 
Our biolab, with controlled P1 access, and the 'inner sanctum' for electronics and imagerie and more are already facilitating project experiments, even the #[https://app.jogl.io/project/181 coronadetective] project, with more fun in the pipeline with our coop colleagues, like Sam and Raffael from Octanis, who were also early members of Hackuarium. In fact, Octanis was 'born' as a Hackuarium project, luckily for everyone... They had been giving the old Hackuarium bioreactor project new life, and providing expertise for the new openflexure epifluorescence build in the first years in Ecublens, before a certain corona virus started spreading.  (Now Octanis is also a small company, in addition to keeping the association active in Ecublens, with a branch in Zurich too.) Hackuarium lost them from Renens early, when they set up the Microverse and an EPFL site, but are so lucky to be back together now...  :)<br>

=Practical Information=
 
 
 
==Rules at Hackuarium==
 
 
 
We have very few rules at Hackuarium. The goal of the association is to provide freedom to its members, so they can explore beyond what is allowed elsewhere. However, we want members and anyone participating in our activities to feel comfortable and respected, and, especially for biosafety and the P1 lab, we want to make sure members always follow the rules. <br>
 
 
 
[[Life_Main | This page]] describes the code of conduct for Hackuarium members.<br>
 
 
 
==Use of the Biolab (P1 lab=Biosafety Level 1 experiments possible)==
 
As of November 2017, Hackuarium was officially hosting its own P1 laboratory.  While we still lacked some essential infrastructure (-80 freezer, ventilated fume hood), we were (and still are!) working on it...
 
More can be found out about use of that previous facility by following the next link...
 
[[ P1 Lab Activities]]
 
However, '''the new space in Ecublens has even more challenges''', with the sterile hood not even fitting in the doors (or windows even) of the Biolab! So, while we indeed hoped to again qualify as an official P1, we were not yet sure intil 6June2019, when a visitor from Bern (mandataire from BAFU) came to the lab to inspect everything, and ended up telling us to go on ahead and work (after admin details sorted - address change with BAFU)!  What great news! <br>
 
The [[Biolab| Biolab Use and Safety]] page specifies equipment and standard operating procedures in the lab in the context of the cooperative in Ecublens. <br>
 
12 members (to confirm!) have already done the intro to biosecurity (but not all have yet signed their waivers!) and will have 24/7 access to the lab. <br> Interested in developing a project with us?  <br>We look forward to seeing you there!
 
 
 
==Protocols==
 
Many protocols that we use at Hackuarium will be found [[ BioP_Main | here]] (work in progress).
 
They are detailed and structured so that the main focus is on applications. The idea is to give crucial information on how to apply the most common techniques of the Biology toolbox. The protocols are structured as follow:
 
::<li> A scheme describing each
 
::<li> A brief description of the protocol and its use
 
::<li> A description of the different ways of carrying out the protocol. Ideally there should be a description of a commercial kit and a DIY kit.
 
::<li> A description of the safety issues and best practice
 
::<li> Information specific to Hackuarium and where to find the components, tools and reagents.

==Consumables in stock==
 
 
 
You can check online the [[http://www.cheminfo.org/?viewURL=https%3A%2F%2Fcouch.cheminfo.org%2Fcheminfo-public%2F200a6e514ad745f3d8b0bf918e2370a3%2Fview.json&loadversion=true&fillsearch=Stock consumables in stock]].
 
 
 
==Instruments available==
 
[[Instru_Main | This page]] describes all the instruments available at Hackuarium (work in progress..), their location and how to use them.
 
 
 
===A list of instruments we still need===
 
This [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1agHVlyMzcg_cdjTlg8bABzjHnOc7Gu0B8v2FGhcEabU/edit?usp=sharing on-line document] contains a list of instruments, tools and consumables we are looking for generally.  We could also greatly use an '''ordinary dissecting scope (''binocular loupe'') with non-heating illumination for manipulations of microbes''' of all sorts (i.e. for the Moss Menageries). We have a standard donation contract ([[contrat de donation]], in French) and if your organisation happens to want to discard a piece of equipment we are (or may be) looking for, [mailto:hello@hackuarium.ch contact us]!
 
 
 
==Where we shop==
 
 
 
As a general rule, we do not buy anything. We try to recycle, upcycle, bicycle, epicycle anything we can, or ask around if anyone can provide supplies for free.<br>
 
 
 
In some cases it does not work out, and so these are the place where we can find what we need.<br>
 
 
 
In any case, '''Please contact a member of the Board, if you need to order anything in the name of Hackuarium.'''<br>
 
 
 
===Labware and Reagents===
 
 
 
Consumables and some chemicals can be purchased from [http://www.huberlab.ch Huber Lab].<br>
 
More chemicals can be obtained from [https://www.carlroth.com/ch/en Carl Roth].<br>

Welcome to Hackuarium, a community lab association in Switzerland, where we explore biology, science and technology.

Bienvenue au Hackuarium, une laboratoire communautaire en la Suisse, où nous découvrons la biologie, la science et la technologie.


C'est quoi, Hackuarium? / What is Hackuarium?

Hackuarium is a not-for-profit association aiming to democratise science through public engagement.

Our laboratories in Ecublens (Switzerland) are open to anyone sharing the values of the association and dedicated to follow the DIYbio Europe ethical guidelines.

Our projects are initiated and carried out by scientists and non-scientists from a variety of backgrounds. Our members are passionate about tinkering with biology in particular, and technology in general. Some are engineers, architects, designers, IT and computer scientists or retired professionals, but others have no scientific education. They are mostly people interested in open and participatory research and innovation, outside the constraints of traditional institutions.

Hackuarium members want to investigate new ways of carrying out interdisciplinary research and innovation, by making their results open, accessible (low-cost), simple and easily reproducible (low-tech) and by promoting an open source philosophy.

/

Hackuarium est une association à but non lucratif visant à démocratiser la science par l'engagement du public.

Nos laboratoires à Ecublens (Suisse) sont ouverts à toute personne partageant les valeurs de l'association et s'engageant à suivre les directives éthiques de DIYbio Europe.

Nos projets sont initiés et menés à bien par des scientifiques et des non-scientifiques issus d'horizons divers. Nos membres sont passionnés par le bricolage en biologie en particulier, et en technologie en général. Certains sont ingénieurs, architectes, designers, informaticiens ou professionnels à la retraite, mais d'autres n'ont aucune formation scientifique. Ce sont surtout des personnes intéressées par la recherche et l'innovation ouvertes et participatives, en dehors des contraintes des institutions traditionnelles.

Les membres de l'Hackuarium veulent étudier de nouvelles façons de mener des recherches interdisciplinaires et d'innover, en rendant leurs résultats ouverts, accessibles (à faible coût), simples et facilement reproductibles (low-tech) et en promouvant une philosophie open source.

Menu de navigation / Navigation menu

The Hackuarium Wiki was started in 2015, and has a great deal of information...

This is the newly updated and simplified bilingual entry.

/

Le wiki Hackuarium a été lancé en 2015, et contient de nombreuses informations....

Voici l'entrée bilingue nouvellement mise à jour et simplifiée.

News

We hope to become officially recognised as a public interest group! / Nous espérons devenir reconnu comme une association d'utilité publique !

Events

We are staying prudent in the face of 'moronic' variants... / On reste prudent face aux variants de corona... =-/

Projects

At least a dozen projects are ongoing, and many times more that archived (and available for further exploration)! / Au moins une douzaine de projets sont en cours, et bien plus encore sont archivés (et disponibles pour une exploration plus approfondie) !


Contribuer au wiki de Hackuarium / Contribute to the Hackuarium wiki

Remember, a wiki is simply a website or online resource that can be edited by multiple users.

That means this website is really meant to be edited by YOU (like for Wikipedia!) to openly document your research projects and share not just knowledge but know-how!

You are not a spam bot, are you?

Here is a great starting point to get help on editing a wiki.

Most important is to find the fun - then it's a snap! (thx to MP for this)

/

N'oubliez pas - un wiki est simplement un site web ou une ressource en ligne qui peut être modifié par plusieurs utilisateurs.

Cela signifie que ce site est vraiment destiné à être édité par VOUS (comme pour Wikipedia !) pour documenter ouvertement vos projets de recherche et partager non seulement des connaissances mais aussi du savoir-faire !

Vous n'êtes pas un robot spammeur, n'est-ce pas ?

Voici un excellent point de départ pour obtenir de l'aide sur l'édition d'un wiki.

Le plus important est de trouver le plaisir - ensuite c'est un jeu d'enfant ! (merci à MP pour cela)


Check out some old wiki pages with the tool 'Random page' in the menu to the left!
