An introduction to the open source synthetic biology biohacking kit
Contents |
The purpose of this wiki is to promote, explore and document biohacking, the DIY biotech movement. In particular we aim to collaborate on expanding and improving the biohacking kit. Your feedback matters -- consider starting a journal or even a blog (somewhere like Wordpress and others).
This wiki is also a host for the wikiable copy of the transhumanist roadmap as well as a general scratchpad for ideas, experiments, philosophy and practice!
Introduction to BioHacking
Join the revolutionary/evolutionary fight against cancer, AIDS, malaria, and other diseases, even against 'death' itself. Maybe you want to see some glowing bacterium, to get your own ecoli farm rolling? Or perhaps you are inspired by the prospects of managing colonies of billions of organisms. This open, free synthetic biology kit contains all sorts of information from across the web on how to do it: how to extract and amplify DNA (one of the secrets of life), cloning techniques, making DNA, and all sorts of other tutorials and documents on techniques in genetic engineering, tissue engineering, synbio (synthetic biology), stem cell research, SCNT, evolutionary engineering, bioinformatics, etc. And since the project is open, it's free for you to revise or share your experiences, or even share your genes (got anything cool?). We are at an exciting period in biology and this wiki can lower the barriers of entry into the open biotech future.
