<br>
I think this Bio list on Sudo might be a small one (Marc set it up for
us but most communication goes through East Bay DIY BIo and Counter
Culture Labs on Google groups).<br>
<br>
Welcome to the group and we're super looking forward to biohacking with
you on the PCR and Hydroponics and many many other things :)<br>

joined the list, primarily as a lurker. I am perpetually spread thin on
project bandwidth but want to be in touch with the bio community in
order to collaborate where there are areas of overlap. My background is
in engineering - civil and environmental engineering in school, now
doing alot of pavement, geotechnical, and drainage/dewatering design.
In my own time I've taken a big technical interest in process control,
mainly in hydroponics, environmental control (like HVAC), and beer
brewing. All the electronic and mechanical stuff is self-taught so
there's been alot of trial and error on my path, but maybe not an order
of magnitude more than if I had learned it in school.<br><br>I am
interested in adding biological elements into designs, and so far have
just been shooting from the hip with mixed results. Some applications
of interest to me are algae biofuel processors, automatic
plant/animal/fungus environmental homeostasis systems, compact
grey/blackwater treatment units, closed-loop irrigation with specialized
bacterial bioreactor elements, and anything having to do with microbial
action to beneficiate rock/sand/spacedust.<br><br>I could be of
assistance on the DIY PCR project as there is some technical overlap on
temperature control and driving peltier elements. Also would be
interested in developing hardware and control systems for economical
mass production of select organisms.<br><br>Looking forward to hacking
with y'all!<br>Hol<br>_______________________________________________<br>Biohackers
