DIY medicine on stage at the world’s largest hacker conference.
This video explains the motivation and the execution behind DIY pirate medicine. Right to repair for your body is in its infancy, but it is here. This video is the distillation of countless hours of effort by our scientific and engineering teams presented live on stage in Las Vegas. It presents the tools and techniques to perform reliable automated chemistry for orders of magnitude less cost than commercial systems.
You can read coverage of the work and the talk here at 404 Media. The video above shows how we created DIY paths to produce pyrimethamine, sofosbuvir, epinephrine auto-injectors, and a novel delivery method for the abortion drug misoprostol. We’re blazing a trail in this space but we’re not alone. We hope some of you will join us in making bodily autonomy not just an ideal to strive for, but a fact on the ground.
Until next time: keep each other healthy, keep each other safe.
