Biohacking with Python

About this talk

Would you like to become the fluorescent Mr. Burns? In this talk we will go through a brief introduction to biohacking and a very short class on genetics in order to understand perfectly and carry out an experiment to edit our own DNA with CRISPR (a copy-paste biological tool) and a Python script (that will design the genetic sequences needed for this tool) to biohack certain genes and become that man. All this will allow us to see the huge potential of the synergy between genetic engineering and Python, not only for funny examples like the one mentioned before but also in the clinical field for therapy.
