I understand this thread is old, but it's still one of the things that comes up if you google DIYBio Chicago. We're setting up a group for the creation of a public biolab. We're called ChiTownBio, and we're on twitter, meetup, and Facebook, soon to have a website. We're in the process of setting up our non-profit status and then we'll move on to getting a physical space. If you're interested, please reach out to us. We're having our first meeting on August 9 at 7 PM at the Empirical Taproom (1801 W. Foster).

I haven't been in Chicago for about 1.5 years but I tried very much to start a Biohackerspace there from like 2011-2012 and there just is not much interest. I contacted both PS1 and SSH and neither were really interested.
I even tried to donate a shit ton of equipment that no one would take. I ended up putting it in the garbage because I didn't want to pay for storage anymore.
I found that Chicago is not the ideal environment for some reason.

Turned out that he committed suicide.Pumpingstation One is the one with electron microscope (SEM is cool equip I admit) and machining equip that I mentioned but nothing bio. I found their board through your link and that discussion is also depressing (lots of issues between people). Anyway, it seems that I will move faster by myself. Thanks for trying to help.

I saw some hacker space (3D printing and even electron microscope) but nothing bio. Anyone from the area?
