Hello all!
For those who may have missed it, the ACA meeting this year has gone
virtual:

Much cheaper to register than ever before, and there are a few days left!
Yesterday morning, I had the honor of receiving the ACA's Ronglie Award,
and I am sharing my presentation here:

My title is "If I had a trillion dollars ...", and I encourage everyone
to contemplate the same fortune every now and then. I think our
community is stronger when we think outside normal financial
constraints, and it can be fun!
In the last 10 minutes I outline a design for an inexpensive and
scalable SARS-CoV-2 test I have been thinking about, and I'd like to ask
the members of this community to contribute to it. Goal is to keep the
per-test price below $1 and scale to 7 billion tests/day. Do you see any
show-stoppers? Has anyone ever tried doing fluorescence detection
without optics? How about in your own kitchen?
I think if we work together this might actually work. Please do let me
know if I missed anything!
