🔬 Hosted by the Biopunk Community Lab
Welcome to the bleeding edge of science and technology.
**The Biopunk DeSci Hackathon** is a 2-day buildathon at the intersection of synthetic biology, web3 tooling, and radical open science happening in the heart of San Francisco. ❤️
Whether you're a scientist, dev, designer, or just DeSci-curious, come help prototype the future of:
💊 Citizen-led clinical trials
🤖 Remote wet lab automation
📚 Peer-to-peer science publishing
🧠 DAO-governed science
🧬 NFT-mintable lab protocols
🌱 Decentralized environmental sensing
A space where imagination, not institutions, defines the boundaries of discovery.
Agenda:
💡 Day 1: Saturday, August 9th
Come ready to be **inspired!** Dive into interactive workshops, live debates, and hands-on demos designed to inspire new ideas.
🖥️ Day 2: Sunday, August 10th

This event is hosted at the Frontier Tower:
We are transforming a 16-floor tower in San Francisco into a self-governed vertical village—a hub for frontier technologies and creative arts. Tier-one labs presenting AI, Ethereum, biotech, neuroscience, longevity, robotics, human flourishing, and arts & music. These floors will house innovators and creators pushing the boundaries of human potential in a post-AI-singularity world.
