[DIYbio] Needed: a list of ways that DIY bio and community labs can positively impact human health

Hello all,

I thought I would throw this question out to the greater DIYbio community. As a backgrounder, Public Health Agency of Canada is holding a DIYbio Summit in Ottawa on March 16th. Derek Jacoby and I, amongst others, are invited panelists at the summit. I believe it will be web-casted (details to follow).

We are tasked with putting together a list of ways that DIY bio and community labs can positively impact human health. What existing DIYbio projects have already met this challenge and what new ideas do you think are possible ways that community biolabs can contribute? Are you working on any open DIYbio projects in this arena? Links would be greatly appreciated.

some topics: health and the environment, biosensors, antibiotics discovery projects, health-related DNA barcoding, water quality biosensors, genomics, microbiome, waste treatment.

Cheers,
Scott
