论文摘要

Diybio通过在传统机构之外定位实验室生物学工作来挑战现状。 HCI越来越多地探索了Diybio运动,但我们对社区Biolabs等实践部位缺乏见解。因此,我们通过采访了16个实验室经理和成员,收集了11个社区Biolabs的数据。这些实验室代表了全球范围内确定的组织的一半。参与者详细介绍了他们的实践和动机,概述了社区Biolabs的限制和机会。我们发现,实验室成员通过使用高端设备和专业知识进行了技术挑战性的项目工作。我们发现,生物运行的独特性质加剧了合作工作的挑战,部分原因是与活生物体的工作敏感。在我们的发现的基础上,我们讨论了社区Biolab成员如何为实验室生物学创造新的方法,以及这如何对支持非传统环境的系统的设计含义。

DIYbio challenges the status quo by positioning laboratory biology work outside of traditional institutions. HCI has increasingly explored the DIYbio movement, but we lack insight into sites of practice such as community biolabs. Therefore, we gathered data on eleven community biolabs by interviewing sixteen lab managers and members. These labs represent half of identified organizations in scope worldwide. Participants detailed their practices and motivations, outlining the constraints and opportunities of their community biolabs. We found that lab members conducted technically challenging project work with access to high-end equipment and professional expertise. We found that the unique nature of biowork exacerbated challenges for cooperative work, partially due to the particular time sensitivities of work with living organisms. Building on our findings, we discuss how community biolab members are creating new approaches to laboratory biology and how this has design implications for systems that support non-traditional settings for scientific practice.
