      Dear All
I thought this event focused on open hardware in science might be of
interest to this list - there are places left for attendees and exhibitors
and all are welcome!
Best wishes

*Open Technology Workshop and Biomaker Fayre - 21 Oct 2017*
Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge, Trumpington Street,
Cambridge
Open Technology Week will showcase and celebrate open and open source
technologies for research and education developed across Cambridge and
beyond.
In the Open Technology Workshop, you'll see exciting talks on everything
from distributed 3D printing in Africa, open hardware in Brazil and
universities collaborating with companies to create open technologies in
Denmark. The Biomaker Fayre in the afternoon will include demonstrations of
open source biological instruments, lab and field equipment featuring over
40 teams who participated in the 2017 Biomaker Challenge
https://www.biomaker.org/. All others with maker projects related to
science and biology are invited to exhibit! We'll have everything from
spectrometers for measuring the colour of penguin guano, microfluidics for
tissue culture, to ultrasonic systems for measuring plant height and 3D
printed modular microscopes.
