To test its utility in analyzing biological samples, we built an open-source Raman spectrometer and collected spectra from chilis, beer, and algae. We could stratify samples, classify replicates, and link spectra with quantitative traits of beer (ABV) and chilis (perceived heat).

Sensory disorders are clinically common, debilitating conditions. But mouse behavioral models are often insufficient. We demonstrate that label-free, minimally-invasive brain imaging in mice could be a promising avenue for sensory research or drug discovery efforts.
Live imaging of swimming cells can yield insight into an organism’s viability and responses to environmental stimuli. We developed a microscopy workflow and image analysis pipeline, SwimTracker, to track motility phenotypes from swimming cells in high throughput.
