Hey all,
If you (like me) weren't attending the SF-SciHackday, then you might
like to peruse the list of hacks/projects to see what people got up to.
Looks like a lot of fun was had, and there are a bunch of familiar names
there!

A few particularly DIYbio projects to look out for:
"Save the Cardinal!", Software to assist an ornithology citizen science
project:

"Homebrew Microscope", a sub-micron DIY microscope using plumbing parts
and a camera:

"HIV/AIDS: Meaningful Indicators?", using machine-learning to seek out
cryptic cues in UNAIDS data that could inform better epidemiology:

"EpiCell", mapping cell phone usage versus healthcare availability to
determine areas where cell-based epidemiology would be most effectively
applied:

A project to search for semantic cues in research papers indicating that
the author has a lot of confidence or excitement about his work, to mine
for early publications worth reading:

"DNAquiri", a Surfacant-free DNA extraction for DNA-cocktails:

Can't wait to get me to a hackday sometime soon. Any Euro-Hackdays planned?
