Our mission is to accelerate the field of synthetic biology through the development of accessible and sustainable cell-free systems. We strive to create a future where cell-free synthetic biology tools are within the reach of researchers, educators, and innovators worldwide, catalyzing groundbreaking discoveries and delivering sustainable solutions to some of the world’s most pressing challenges.
Cell-Free Systems have the potential to transform a diverse range of bioprocesses, from small-scale synthesis of protein for research purposes to mass production of medicines and industrial enzymes [1]. However, the high cost of entry, complex logistics, and specialized equipment required to utilize cell-free systems have still left many researchers in academia and early-stage biotech unable to fully leverage this powerful technology.

## The need for a strategy
While we had achieved a working prototype, we needed to fully characterize the problem for our results to be impactful and relevant.
