For the "ssDNA to dsDNA Experimental Design" part, the Context and Scope section needs a reference. If you want, try using the Bibliography format Lucy set up, it's pretty nice; to see how it is set up check the Microfluidics index.md file as well as the bibliography.bib file (within the src folder). |

I have to add the necessary packages to the replit setup; so right now the bibliography.bib doesn't work on replit (but does work on Codespaces) |
|
But for now, like Diego mentioned, you can add references through bibliography.bib, they just won't render correctly |
|
I merged main/resolved some merge conflicts so you can now add sources to bibliography.bib. Make sure to |

| ## Context and Scope | ||
|
|
||
| Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) is a special type of polymerase found in mammals that is able to synthesize ssDNA in a template-independent manner. Our project aims to utilize TdT to customize and synthesize DNA strands for data storage. | ||
|
|
||
| Since TdT’s ability is limited to ssDNA synthesis, while ssDNA is not a stable biological molecule, this constrainsts our ability to store data long term using ssDNA. Hence, we propose to convert ssDNA to dsDNA once it is synthesized by TdT. |

Can you add a reference for this section?
