Melina Fan's experience as a doctoral student highlighted the difficulties in sharing plasmids, leading her to co-found Addgene to streamline access to DNA materials for researchers.
Through Addgene, scientists can easily access a vast repository of plasmids, receiving timely, quality-controlled materials without the burden of legal and logistical issues.
The creation of Addgene addresses significant barriers to research in the life sciences, ensuring that researchers can reliably acquire needed reagents while allowing developers to focus on their work.
By handling the complexities of plasmid sharing, Addgene not only simplifies the process for researchers but also promotes collaboration and innovation within the scientific community.
