+ | Being fed up with the University's passiveness someone wants to try - or teach others to really do something with their knowledge about biology or chemistry. They start with simple [PCRs](http://openpcr.org/) or [centrifuges](https://diybio.org/2012/06/11/dremelfuge-classic/). Usually really excited they're doing something "off the grid". Rarely Grinders or Cooks. | ||
