The biohack.me forums were originally run on Vanilla and ran from January 2011 to July 2024. They are preserved here as a read-only archive. If you had an account on the forums and are in the archive and wish to have either your posts anonymized or removed entirely, email us and let us know.

While we are no longer running Vanilla, Patreon badges are still being awarded, and shoutout forum posts are being created, because this is done directly in the database via an automated task.

Educational Resources for Biohackers

There are many of us that are interested in getting into projects that we have little knowledge on.  If you want to get a basic working knowledge of a subject, try out Khan Academy.

Basic Electrical stuff can be found under "Physics".  I also suggest that you take a look at the Biology and Chemistry sections if you are interested in getting involved in the DIYbio projects.  As a whole, knowing Calc, Lin. Algebra, Differential Equations, Stats, Physics, Chem, and Bio will be extremely useful.  Obviously we can't know it all, so try to focus in on a few subjects and get good at them.

Good luck!
