All ConsumingHouseplantsCharlotte Stavrou and Amit Katwala go mushy for houseplants in this episode of All Consuming where they explore our culture of consumption. Philodendrons, Hoyas, Monsteras - the list of plants available to consumers is now almost endless and these green companions became a crucial part of our home during lockdown when we craved the outdoors. In recent years, our love for houseplants has seen the plant market explode - but at what cost? Charlotte and Amit meet Jacob James, a seller of rare plants at the Royal Chelsea Flower Show, who reveals that...2023-08-0324 min
The Fancy Labcoat GuildSmall, thoughtful science: A Live AMA on Amateur Biology and Independent Research with Sebastian CociobaIn our first special AMA hosted by Scifind on our Discord, we brought in Sebastian Cocioba–the 21st century's very own modern Mendel. 🧬 Sebastian is an amateur biologist and one of the founders of Binomica Labs, who works from the comfort of his home lab, surrounded by his beloved plants and instruments. From cultivating his passion to surviving the joyful grind of tinkering away in his bespoke workshop, he's seen it all. Sebastian is a plant whisperer and microbe wrangler who has a burning passion for science, further exemplified that he built out his lab in his pri...2023-03-171h 06
The Living RevolutionSampling from the ocean, Mischief and Misery, curiousity-driven research | Sebastian CociobaSebastian Cocioba is an amateur scientist pursuing his scientific curiousities from his home lab and mentoring young scientists via Binomica Labs. His mission is to enable agency through building open source tools and allow anyone to explore the world around them. Coming up in this episode, we talk oceans, what lives in different benthic zones, and also about jargon and communicating science, edutainment and a small bay drone made from trash.

In our previous episode, we discussed how he's building tools for the future molecular florists.Here and now, we take this topic further, starting with the example of a DIY directed evolution machine made cheaply. If you're an engineering student, we encourage you to make, improve and remake his designs. You'll be supporting a community of open source directed evolution machines. In this episode, we also hear a story about one of the students Sebastian mentored: a potential future molecular florist? It's a...2023-03-0729 minThe Living RevolutionMolecular Florists, Binomica Labs, the M9 Media, Photobiology | Sebastian CociobaSebastian Cocioba is a scientist and researcher building open source tools to make research easier and cheaper. Do you, by any chance, know where the M9 media comes from and what it was originally used? Sebastian takes us on a two year journey to discover the origin paper of this medium and how he ended up falling in love with photobiology, better defining his research questions and more. We take the journey with him as he becomes a researcher for hire and starts a mentorship programme for other keen scientists with Binomica Labs; the wetware, thoughtware, hardware to help...2023-03-0431 minThe Living RevolutionDIY Biology | Sebastian CociobaSebasian Cocioba is an independent researcher, conducting the discovery, research and more from his own home lab. This is part one of our conversation with Sebastian. He details his first experiences in science from seeing a maple leaf and thinking "I need to understand" this, to being recruited for a start-up and learning how to build a lab from ground up.
