We were at the Hacking the Human Body conference on Thursday, which had a full day of presentations and panels on a wide variety of subjects, including robotics, neuroscience, synthetic biology, synthetic neurobiology, music therapy, prosthetic limbs, bio-remediation, and brain sensing technology.  This was at Digital Garage in SF, they have an excellent crew supporting events there.

BLOG INAUGURATION

BLOG INAUGURATION

This blog could also be titled "adventures in biology" because it is going to chronicle our journeys into the life of cells and molecules.  The San Francisco Bay Area is a brilliant point of light in the global science network (You knew that, didn't you?). I'd like to thank the citizen scientists of the Bay Area biohacker community for your kind help and support.  I'm not mentioning any names in this post but you know who you are.  Nenufar loves you!
Nenufar is preparing to conduct our first experiment to produce a peptide,  Hey, why don't we give it a name?

NML-0001

Our interest in lectins with antiviral properties led to research that indicates that this peptide may have medical applications.  We will say more about this in future posts.

We will welcome any interested parties interested in science to join with us on this adventure,  please leave your comments and questions as the experiment progresses.
