Week 1 HW: Principles and Practices
- Biological engineering application or tool to develop and why Idea Mi idea its a biological biosensor designed to detect early changes in dependence on the molecular chaperone HSP90 in KIT mutant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), as functional indicators of cellular adaptation preceding the development of resistance to imatinib. Figure 1. Conceptual schematic of the proposed biological biosensor. Image generated using AI for graphical representation purposes only.
Generate an artistic design using the GUI at opentrons-art.rcdonovan.com. Using the coordinates from the GUI, follow the instructions in the HTGAA26 Opentrons Colab to write your own Python script which draws your design using the Opentrons. You may use AI assistance for this coding — Google Gemini is integrated into Colab (see the stylized star bottom center); it will do a good job writing functional Python, while you probably need to take charge of the art concept. If you’re a proficient programmer and you’d rather code something mathematical or algorithmic instead of using your GUI coordinates, you may do that instead.
