What is a Thermocycler?
The importance of a thermocycler for detecting and stopping the spread of diseases is discussed here:
Purpose:
I believe that the essential science behind the thermocycler can be boiled down and remade with modern electronics for 100X less cost, locally sustainable, portable, and work in remote regions where electricity is less reliable. My theory is that lower cost equipment = more test equipment = faster testing = better disease detection and prevention = lives saved and healthier people.
