Happy holidays from the folks at the AGGRC!
Participants of the class "3-D Printing Farm Planning and Operation" organized a tour of the AGGRC 3D printer farm on Monday, November 28, 2022. The event was a success, Congratulations to the group and in particular Ally and Cameron, that acted as coordinators for this activity. The printer farm, funded by NIH-ORIP, will support the mission of the AGGRC, by allowing the production of open technology for beta testing.

Yesterday (December 1, 2022), we had an interesting meeting with Dino Paternostro, MPH, CEcD, regarding the organization of the Open Hardware Ecosystem for Global Aquatic Germplasm Preservation, being developed under the NSF program Pathways to Enable Open-Source Ecosystems (POSE). Dino will be an invaluable collaborator as we advance the planning and development of this resource for the community. Mr Paternostro visited our installations, including the NIH-ORIP funded 3D printer farm at the AGGRC.

AGGRC demonstrated the use of 3D printing role in conservation of marine species, at Ocean Commotion 2022, an event organized by the Louisiana Sea Grant College Program. The event was attended by 1,693 students from public and private schools, and 239 adults. Eleven Louisiana Parishes attended. The activity is part of NIH-ORIP and NSF-POSE funded projects.

Dr. Mike Lomas, Director of the Provasoli-Guillard National Center for Marine Algae and Microbiota (NCMA) and the Center for Algal Innovations (CAI) visited us on October 17-19, 2022 to discuss current and future collaborations. Current collaborations include work funded by the NSF program Pathways to Enable Open-Source Ecosystems (PEOSE) and the LSU Ag Center Pilot Program for Enhancement of External Competitive Funding
Carl Anderson, From the National Xenopus Resource (NXR) received training and exchanged information on Xenopus husbandry with personnel of the AGGRC. The training is under the umbrella of a collaboration funded by NIH-ORIP. The training took place November 7-11, 2022.
Mike, Yue, and Teresa attended the grand opening and ribbon cutting for Additive Innovators in New Iberia, LA. Additive Innovators is the south Louisiana seller of the full line of Desktop Metal printers which provide metal and polymer 3-D printing capability. Additive Innovators
We also had a visit this morning from the Interim Vice President for Agriculture, Dr. Matt Lee. Thanks for stopping by. We look forward to having you come visit more often.
We had a visit from Dr. Javier Nevarez and Dr. John Hawke from the LSU Vet School this afternoon. We enjoyed showing them around.
Caroline Guo (our designer) has been crafting fish to decorate our newly established 3D Printing Farm!
The CryoKit V2.4.6, a 3-D printable device to cryopreserve samples in liquid nitrogen at a controlled rate, has been released. The documentation, instructions, and printing files are available at the NIH 3D print exchange at https://3dprint.nih.gov/discover/3dpx-017898. The funding for the development of this device was provided by NIH-ORIP.
One of our favorite creatures here at the aquatic center! Great pictures taken by Art student worker, @wenbin.me #axolotl #aggrc #lsu #research
Dr. John Chandler was our initial connection to the Dairy Improvement Center building, which now houses the AGGRC. We collaborated with Dr. Chandler in the 1990’s to lay the foundation for commercial-scale work.
