The plant [I]Arabidopsis[/I] has been genetically modified to suck up the poisonous metal Aresenic from the soil and transport it to the leaves, which could be dried and stored. This, according to me, is a very good example where BioHacking is actually d...

Researchers have improved the Bioprinter technology to make more dense organs. These Bioprinters print the complete tissues (and organs, in near future) which are very much alive. This is a vital step towards replacement of old and worn out tissues. Imag...

The self-assembly of viruses has been used by researchers at MIT to synthesize high-density batteries. These batteries have twice the capacity of carbon-based ones.

Engineers are clearly learning and using much of nature's existing sofisticated t...

Here is an interesting bit of information. While the whole world is busy searching for Extra Terrestial life, some scientists are creating genomes for creatures that never existed. Genedupe's researchers have synthesised genomes of Dragon, Unicorn, etc ...
