Abstract:
在科學研究中,研究者必須具備蒐集數據、分析資料及描述事物的能力。透過圖像具體呈現研究概念和分析結果是常用的有效傳遞訊息方式,也是新手科學家必須學習和反覆練習的工具。鑒於缺乏統整給科學研究者的繪圖學習資源,我們舉辦第一場科學繪圖講座專題, 目標對象是博士生和博士後。在此演講中,涂老師將為大家介紹科學繪圖的重要性、思考流程以及使用的繪圖工具。

Abstract:
Tracking objects or finding their source can be challenging and yet can be useful in scenarios such as a forensic scene or food-borne illness. We created synthetic microbes barcoded genetically that can be used to find the path or source of objects. The barcodes sustain disturbances and can be detected rapidly with our CRISPR/Cas system with high specificity and sensitivity. The platform is affordable and portable and thus suitable for in-lab and on-site investigations.
