When an outbreak of a disease such as Ebola occurs, mobile labs are set in place to help speed up diagnostic processes. Still, these mobile labs often come in the form of container-based or truck mounted labs, which are difficult to employ to areas where roads are poor. Now, through a combination of simple carpentry, 3D-printing and sheer innovation, a duo of grad students have created a portable laboratory designed specifically to address the constraints facing medical diagnostics in Africa. Best of all, the mini-lab is powered by the sun and cheap to make.
