Right to Repair–for Your Body.
The Four Thieves Vinegar Collective is an anarchist collective dedicated to enabling access to medicines and medical technologies to those who need them but don’t have them.
If you emailed Mixael directly over the past few months, we’re very sorry but we lost your correspondence due to technical issues.
That email address works again – please re-reach out.
Thank you DEF CON!
Thanks to everyone who came out to see us, support us, and get involved!
ChemHacktica has been a little flaky lately. We’re aware and are working on getting it fully functional again.
Let us know if you want to host an instance!
In the mean time you can use MIT’s equally functional (but slightly less cool) version.
Microlab Suite
The MicroLab is a DIY automated chemical reactor that you can assemble with commonly available hardware. The MicroLab works together with a suite of apps to guide the discovery and production of lifesaving drugs.
Microlab
A DIY Controlled Lab Reactor for small molecule organic chemistry
Chemhacktica
A reverse synthesis tool to discover novel reaction pathways
Apothecarium
A drag-and-drop tool for writing Microlab “recipes” – accessed through Vinni
Vinni
A virtual research assistant that ties the software suite together (early alpha)
Tooth Seal
Make a cavity-repairing solution of Nanoparticle Silver Fluoride at home. Use it to stop a cavity in progress or apply it ahead of time and bolster your enamel with anti-microbial silver particles. The treatment is simple, cheap, and effective.
Emergency Suite
In an emergency where every second counts, there are a few things to have on hand. These include medicines like epinephrine, devices like defibrillators, and off-the-shelf products like sports oxygen.
The Emergency Room Suite is a collection of lifesaving technologies that can save your life or buy time for an ambulance to arrive.
Make your own Emergency Room.
