Seems pratical. I'd rather play god and edit life.Get one of them laser boxes that spray green and red.
I figured you life sciences guys would've heard about Bioglow. Though come to think of it, they've gone quiet since they found funding. They're private equity so they prolly have to stop promoting. I actually read about the bioluminescent plant startups through the CRISPR biohacking scene before Bloomberg published their article on them. One is Bioglow in St. Louis and the other is Glowing Plant Co. that got like 80k over kickstarter. That was a few years ago so there's prolly a ton of them by now considering how HUGE the biohacking scene has become.Genetically engineered conifers to express multiple bioluminesent colors so I never have to deal with fucking christmas lights again.
I wish I could dislike your post becuase you used the word "biohacking"
Genetic engineering. Biochemical engineering. Recombinant DNA techniques. Exogenous protein expression. Playing god. Anything but that retarded word.LMAO u mad? What do you nerds want to call it? I don't pay much attention to the plant stuff, though I suppose they've been getting a lot of investment buzz this year with those BIOHACKERS that made that blue rose.

With that name hispters will buy a 6 pack of cans for $15!BiohackBeer.
Journal Nature said:Such feats are beyond the reach of do-it-yourself (DIY) ‘biohackers’, a growing community ofamateur biologists who often work in community laboratories, which typically charge a recurring fee for access to equipment and supplies. But CRISPR itself is not. Driven by an inventive spirit that inspires them to fiddle with yeast to alter the flavour of beer, build art installations out of bacteria or pursue serious basic-research questions, these amateurs cannot wait to try the technique.
“It’s, like, the most amazing tool ever,” says Andreas Stürmer, a biohacker and entrepreneur who lives in Dublin. “You could do it in your own home.”
Sosa is an IT consultant from San Jose, California, who took up biohacking as a hobby about three years ago, when he decided that he would like to grow organs — or maybe other body parts — in the lab. At first, he had no idea how unrealistic that goal was. “I just thought you take a bunch of stem cells and add stuff to them,” he says.
