An organisation called BioCurious recently opened a community biology lab in California's Bay Area.
This spring the Park Avenue Armory will be the site of his artistic expedition to Mars, complete with a biology lab for Martian plant cultivation. (Sachs borrowed the technology from marijuana growers.) And this month his show "Work" opens at New York's Sperone Westwater gallery, featuring pieces like a Japanese tea ceremony and a version of Roy Lichtenstein's razor-blade painting "Duridium, " made here out of screws.
Instead of just looking at one gene at a time, it uses an emerging method called systems biology that marries differential equations, computer simulations, and wet-lab biology to try to understand how molecular circuits go awry in cancer.
Remember seventh grade biology when you picked a lab partner, did some unnamed experiments and then huddled around the single microscope in the lab where you had a 1.9 second glance at what was beneath the slides?
Dr. LEE RYBECK LYND (Professor of Engineering, Adjunct Professor of Biology, Dartmouth College): In my lab, one of the big ideas we're working on, is to try to develop microorganisms using genetic engineering, that let us do, in one step, what we're now only able to do in more than one step.

It aims to bring together advances in artificial intelligence, wireless sensing, imaging diagnostics, lab-on-a-chip, and molecular biology.
Scherer had an interest in biology, and he called Caltech biology professor David Baltimore, a 1975 Nobel laureate in medicine, to see if Baltimore's lab could help with the experiments on the prototype machine Maltezos and his lab mates had devised.
