Which supplies are unavailable to biohackers but available to university scientists?
Sorry i'm pretty much totally new to this field.
I thought biohackers can only get non-dangerous materials like... stuff from HomeDepot, and wondered how they can get non-OTC drugs, chemicals, biological/genetic substances etc... basically stuff that you can usually only find in professional science labs such as at universities.
But according to this forum, it sounds like you guys can just order whatever you want from the same reputable suppliers that university labs use.
Am I right? I thought that those suppliers only sell to universities or biotech companies. Or is it just that you guys can get stuff because you order through your university or something?
If you can really just order whatever as a garage-based biohacker, is there anything you cannot get that university scientists/students can?
