I work in the Systems Biology Laboratory at Keio University. I found OpenWetWare when I surveyed the information to start microfluidics experiments at our lab, and I found Endy's information at OpenWetWare. After that I've joined this activity because I'm very interested in to open biological experimental procedures, results, even the failure-end experiments, and why I'm interested in to open those information is that I believe those freely-accessible information about biological experiments and their results would have significant effect on bioinformatics, which has a potential to deal with enormous amount data, and could drive the new strategy of biological studies.
