I work in the [[Your Lab]] at XYZ University. I learned about [[OpenWetWare]] from Drew Endy, and I've joined because I am a researcher in the Endy Lab at Stanford University looking to share useful protocols for working with tardigrades in a laboratory setting. I began working with tardigrades one year ago, and found a severe lack of written protocols for working with these animals, making it difficult to get started. Now, having compiled many resources and much knowledge about working with tardigrades, I hope to share these protocols with the greater scientific community in one easily-accessible area..
I am an undergraduate researcher in the Endy Lab at Stanford University. In the past I have studied disparate but intriguing topics, such as colorectal cancer and its detection using Quantum Dots and fluorescence microscopy, neovessel growth patterns during angiogenesis using time-series microscopy, and tardigrade biology/taxonomy using techniques and tools such as contrast and light microscopy. I am currently working to improve open-source robotics for laboratory automation as part of a group called RoboTeam.
 
I am also a co-president of Stanford's Biological Interdisciplinary Open Maker Environment (BIOME), a student group that supports independent undergraduate research projects that involve engineering with and for biology. BIOME organizes an annual biohackathon that attracts students, faculty researchers, and industry professionals looking to connect and create amazing projects.

Richard A. Cordova (an artistic interpretation)

I am an undergraduate researcher in the Endy Lab at Stanford University. In the past I have studied disparate but intriguing topics, such as colorectal cancer and its detection using Quantum Dots and fluorescence microscopy, neovessel growth patterns during angiogenesis using time-series microscopy, and tardigrade biology/taxonomy using techniques and tools such as contrast and light microscopy. I am currently working to improve open-source robotics for laboratory automation as part of a group called RoboTeam.

I am also a co-president of Stanford's Biological Interdisciplinary Open Maker Environment (BIOME), a student group that supports independent undergraduate research projects that involve engineering with and for biology. BIOME organizes an annual biohackathon that attracts students, faculty researchers, and industry professionals looking to connect and create amazing projects.
