Logging room climate, Part 1

I have been working, very sporadically but for quite a while, on an ESP8266-based room climate logger with an BME280 sensor. This sensor measures temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure. My current setup uses a Wemos D1 mini plus a Wemos battery shield as well as Waveshare 1.5 inch e-paper display. The display is updated once […]

3D printer Wanhao Duplicator i3+ arrived

I had tremendous fun this weekend after my first 3D printer, a Wanhao Duplicator i3+ arrived. The reason for getting a 3D printer was even more fun I am recently having with microcontrollers, especially the ESP8266, and I needed a way to printer perfectly fitting enclosures for my builds. Stay tuned for details. Regarding the […]

Current Challenges in Plant-Ecometabolomics

Our new overview article entitled “Current Challenges in Plant-Ecometabolomics” has just appeared in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences [tpcite key=”Peters:2018cv”]. As we explain in the abstract, “[t]he relatively new research discipline of Eco-Metabolomics is the application of metabolomics techniques to ecology with the aim to characterise biochemical interactions of organisms across different spatial and […]
