Independent labs aren't supposed to do what we do. AI guides experiments. Robotics runs them. Cheap compute processes everything in between. Those three things landing in the same window didn't just lower the cost of science, they changed who gets to do it seriously. Lambda Biolab has been running independently since 2022. Lambda Hack is two days where that lab is yours to use. Five tracks. Real bench. Open source. 📅 16.05.2026-17.05.2026 📍 Riehenstrasse 14, Basel CH · https://lambdabiolab.com

As you probably have seen, I've been testing how far you can push low-cost mammalian cell culture without the usual CO₂ incubator infrastructure. My friends and I submitted our results for peer-review. I've been working on addressing some of the reviewer's comments, and I think we are getting quite far now, as you can see in the video. We can now transfect HEK293T/17 cells in our CO₂‑independent setup with very high efficiency while maintaining high viability across passages. We're moving past trying to express EGFP now and trying more advanced things like expressing antibody fragments, biologic drugs, and drug screening reporter systems. As an example, I am constructing separate GLP1 and GIP reporter systems that can help you benchmark your preclinical cardiometabolic assets against the current gold standards (tirzepatide or semaglutide). If anyone is working on cool drugs that they want to validate in an in vitro model before investing heavily in animal trials, feel free to reach out.

🧪🔬New Equipment Alert🔬🧪 We're excited to share the latest addition to the lab: The Bio-Gener Q1604-F real-time PCR system It is now up and running at Lambda Biolab.This compact 16‑well, 4‑channel qPCR instrument gives our community access to fast, quantitative DNA/RNA detection for applications like diagnostic pathogen testing, gene expression analysis, and small‑scale assay development. Lambda Biolab now combines a multimode plate reader, qPCR system, and epifluorescence inverted microscope, giving community members access to a full mini-core facility in one shared BSL‑1 space. This breadth of instrumentation is rarely available outside institutional cores and firmly positions the lab as Basel’s most advanced and affordable lab rental option. With the plate reader, members can run absorbance, fluorescence, and luminescence assays for everything from enzyme kinetics to cell viability in microplates. The qPCR machine adds sensitive nucleic-acid quantification for gene expression, pathogen detection, and rapid prototyping of molecular biology projects. The inverted epifluorescence microscope enables live-cell imaging, GFP/RFP reporter readouts, and phase-contrast cell biology, tying together functional assays from the reader with direct visualization of cells and constructs. Combined with our focus on low bench fees, flexible access, and supporting independent researchers and startups, this toolset makes cutting-edge wet‑lab work financially accessible in a way that traditional facilities and commercial lab spaces in Switzerland typically cannot offer.
