Skillset Register
I would like to get an idea of what skills we can contribute to biohack, whether it be professional skills, or skills you obtained from "winging it" - it doesn't matter.
Lukas:
- Some experience in bacterial genetics
- Some experience in Chemistry labs ( First year college stuff)
- Ability to reach a large group of people (via University)
- Access to academic information (power-points, mainly) on biology (which may expand to include more subjects)
- Access to college educated individuals willing to contribute
In the process of learning -
- Human genetics
- Mat Lab programing
- Integral and Vector calculus, differential equations
- Mechanical Engineering
I know, not spectacular, but I am working on it

My skills & knowledge include:
- Undergraduate Physics
- Math through basic partial differential equations & some advanced probability distributions.
- Some chemical engineering up to & including chemical kinetics & unit operations.
- General understanding of chemistry, but not specialized in it at all.
- Mathcad & a little bit of R.
- Welding & machining, although I lack mill & lathe access at the moment. I've also done some brewing & a little robotics.
- I've done some work with modifying complex & random co-polymers(lignin) for more desirable properties.
- Some electronics.
- Other things that happen to have slipped my mind at the moment.
Does anyone know a good guide on oscillators?- International business/finance.
- Basic knowledge of business law.
- Int'l corporate expansions. I'll set up a fully staffed office anywhere in the world for you.
- Extensive real estate experience, especially deal syndication/repositioning.
- Stock market shit.
- Oil/gas exploration.
- Mind control..
I like disruptive innovations and technology. I'm a good guy to chat with if you need to hash out an idea. Here is my pretentious linkedin account if you want to add me:http://www.linkedin.com/pub/rich-lee/31/b46/4a
- Economics
and a decent working knowledge of a variety of other subjects, though generally more in the social sciences than the physical sciences.(It could come in handy. ... Maybe. I'm a weak tie.)
Well... I'm working with an engineer friend and some other guys on a wearable augmentation suit so I can be a superhero in LA. Some of the things we're trying to incorporate might be miniaturized and become useful in the context... but I'm afraid most of the ones that occur to me immediately would have to be transdermal to work... and the general consensus is that's bad, I think.
And I have a military background and have traveled a lot and seen strange things. And I can do art.
I find this whole thing absolutely irresistable and terrifying at the same time -- I'm not sure I could summon the courage to perform even superficial surgery on myself. Anyway, it's a moot point for the next two years until I retire from the army.
IT Experience
Other Interests
Fermentation eg( bread, wine, yoghurt) & Exogenous digestion ie(enzymes & bacterial)
J
Skills
Programming: pretty language agnostic, use the right hammer for the screw and such.
some electrical engineering, want to learn more but need money
currently learning AI, will be learning networking soon
enough physics and chemistry to understand simpler things
can design stuff, not super great at it though
Other interests
robotics: once I have money...
augmented reality
Experience, skills and other helpful stuff:
Am willing to experiment with any new mods. Let me know if I can help with anything and I´ll do my best. Will add body modification to this list soon(subdermal, microdermal and If what I´m working on works, even transdermal). Am planning to extend my tattoo studio to body mod and aug studio. Looking forward to work with you

Future skills:
I'm very happy to discuss ideas and procedures and provide insight into anatomical and surgical matters, although I cannot give any formal medical advice to individuals on this forum.
I am very interested in discussions pertaining to the medical ethics of 'biohacking' and how a justification might one day be made for the practice to be accepted by the greater medical community.... just as the practice of 'unecessary but desirable' cosmetic surgery is already accepted.
Finally, for those serious individuals with advanced degrees and technical ability who have the faculty to design novel and useful implants and are looking for a surgical collaborator to plan and help execute prototypes, I am very willing and interested to discuss privately how that might be done.
I wish you all the best; keep your imaginations running.
I'm from Poland, we have 6 year long medical studies + 1 year long internship here before we get out medical licenses. As far as I know our medical licenses are 'compatible' with all EU countries, I don't know american system well enough to determine how those 7 years translate into your system.
This means two things:
1. I have a wide medical knowledge from a lot of areas as well as some knowledge and know how about medical, biological, biochemical, physiological etc. research fields, as well as probably anything else one could expect from a medical doctor.
2. I'm bound to do no harm, and (especially not being a surgeon-specialist) I would not and will not perform any surgery with home-brewed implants for the fear of loosing my license. Also, everything I write should be treated as 'just theoretical discussion and not medical advice, if you want to do this consult your doctors first', and other such cover_my_ass bs ;)
During my studies, of the more interesting points, I've done a tissue engineering basics course.
I have knowledge of physics, chemistry, biology, programming, basic electronics and a variety of other topics at least at the 'I can understand what you're talking about' level because I'm very quick to pick up any new knowledge. I also like tinkering (even if I don't have a lot of free time to do so), so I know at least basics of soldering, metalworking and such.
Dreams on 'to do' list:
Making a working transdermal (and possibly in future implanted subdermal) electronics - nervous system communication bridge (I have peripheral nerves on my mind more than direct brain communication currently).
Working on cyberpunk kind of cybernetic prosthesis arms, legs and internal organs (I mean the medical grade stuff, not home grinding). I haven't found a place in my proximity that works on that yet though.
Making a working 'ironman' kind of exoskeletal suit (without sci-fi power source and flying probably ;P )
currently a student but work in a lab that me and a guy are building (gonna do loads of biohacking in it amongst other insanity)
I'm a web developer, involved with both the front end and back end, plus getting better with server management and the like. Bachelors of Science in Interactive design, though a vast majority of my courses were along the programming track vs design.
