Building Sam's Medical Lab

Donation protected
My name is Samuel and I am Biochemist holding a PhD in medical science. I am raising funds to build my own lab facility to allow the continued research on combating cancer.

For more than 9 years, including my PhD project, I am working in the cancer research with focus on tumor development and cancer cell metastasis. I could publish my work successfully in various journals and present on numerous international conferences. An overview of my work can be found here:

I saved money to buy the basic lab equipment I need to proceed with the experiments. The picture below shows some items of my equipment.


I already started using the equipment as mobile tools to work in lab-facilities that usually do not provide sterile working places as shown in the picture below.


After finishing my PostDoc position I am now planning my next step to build my own lab facility which allows me to continue and expand my research work to decipher and combat the causes of cancer.

The lab will be built based on the requirements listed in the law on the regulation of genetic engineering and the BGI/GUV-I 850.0 policy for the operation of a laboratory and will include: 

1) a laboratory bench (about 2,000 €)
2) boards (about 500 €),
3) lockers (about 200 €),
4) sink units (about 150 €),
5) lab seats (about 100 €), 
6) ventilation (about 500 €),
7) disposal system (about 250 €),
8) -80 degree freezers (about 1,000 €) and
9) fridges (about 900 €).

Due to the restrictive regulations the prices for the lab-room setup are quite high and I hope to find generous people who will help me to realize this project.

If you have questions I am very happy to answer them.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my campaign and your support.

Cheers, Samuel
