Genetic Circuits

Genetic Circuits

Genetic Circuits is a name I found (and liked) on the cover of Scientific American. It was in reference to an article that talked about the future of DNA synthesis in which bio-engineers can fabricate DNA sequences (genes) for drug discovery and reproductive cell growth much in the same way early semiconductor engineers used planar technology to develop integrated circuits into microprocessors. The article was very intriguing to me. So much so that I immediately went to Go Daddy and bought the domain name "geneticcircuits.com" and also registered the trade name with the State of Arizona.  Genetic Circuits and this Blog outlines the business partnerships of four organizations operating in consortium within our facility on Medtronic Way in Tempe, AZ. This Blog will be a journal in various aspects of technology growth and process discovery. Everything from the equipment, business relations, trade shows, service offerings, bioscience workshops will be discussed. Check Back often!

Biotech Training

We are very excited to start our new biotech training program in Tempe this September. We have had a lot of great responses from a number of people. We are hoping to become a key resource of information and training. Our electronics development customers may also benefit in the future as we implement the technology in house to produce "genetic circuits". Our training is an ideal introduction to biotechnology wet lab processes and procedures. We have had responses from patent attorneys,  business consultants, executives, engineers and educators. Our Tempe lab covers processes such as cell culture, RNA extraction, DNA extraction, gel electrophoresis, microarray spotting and laser analysis.
