Resume

I am developing cheap, reliable, and simple molecular biology techniques and DIY-equipment for amateur biotechnologists.
I am one of the founders of a community of amateur biologists called diybio.org, for people who want to understand, and in some cases, re-engineer the living world, in a safe, economic, and fun way.
