Maybe this is a naive question and somewhat niche specific, but lately, I’ve been learning about CROs and Cloud Labs in biotech. I want to know if these concepts will be replicated in DeSci with a Web3 touch similar to how cloud centers have been labeled as DePIN with a Web3 element. Also, will DeSci create new markets that weren’t possible before? If so, what kinds of new markets could emerge?

Maybe something like this exists, or maybe it doesn’t and should. Since I'm still a bioinformatics newbie, do let me know what you think.

When I was doing a course in bioinformatics, I realized that the tools are somewhat complicated in terms of user experience, and some of the people in the course agreed. Imagine if there was a ChatGPT-like tool that anyone could use. You could provide it with the raw data, ask for recommendations on what kind of computations to run, and boom, it's done. This would really help people who aren't familiar with bioinformatics. But I'm not just talking about Galaxy Cloud Compute, I'm talking about other bioinformatics software scattered around the internet. Since they are open-source, anyone could integrate them and make scientists' lives easier.

Need opinion on something: Grants for integrating and making bioinformatics software more user-friendly, available for free. I'm talking about something like Galaxy cloud compute, but 1000 times more user-friendly.

TIL that James Watson and Francis Crick were called WC (water closet) because the biochemists hated them since they did not carry out any original experiments to discover the structure of DNA and instead relied on data from other researchers. Lol, they were the actual underdogs in the race to discover the structure and in the end emerged victorious. That’s beautiful.

Thankfully, most doctors realize that everyone is just contributing to the field and there's no one who's superior or inferior here. But low-key, I want to work on an AI project which will truly replace doctors. Then I'll see who knows the best for the patients.

What I hated about the conversation with him was that he thinks being a doctor is the most superior thing in all of life sciences, and the life purpose of other people who contribute to life sciences is to “serve doctors” since they know what's best for patients.

Today a friend who’s studying medicine literally told me that “You know you can study medicine after you finish your degree, right?” and that felt so wrong because he said that in a condescending way, as if biotech isn’t important.

Whenever I tell someone I study biotech, their response is either, “Oh that's cool, so how can we live forever?” or “Oh, so you're going to be unemployed for the rest of your life.” Mostly, there’s no in between.

Probably the best way to do it is to do proper research about it, and then go for trails for it. Even in that there’s a probability that what you might be experiencing might be just placebo, and inorder to confirm it you’d need to run proper experiments with a control group to test your hypothesis about it.

Lately I’ve seen a spike in people’s interest in Biohacking, I see a lot of threads on X about it. I bet most people posting these threads think dopamine is what makes us happy. I’m no expert in Biohacking either, but ik for a fact that if it were that easy we’d have the cure for cancer by now.

there will be also an option where people who have submitted their data and the people who have computed the data will get notified if their data was used to publish a paper or used produce a certain drug, this will let people be more connected with science. If there anything we should add? -3/n

that data will run computations on it and then finally the data will be listed on the market place along with the raw anonymised data, incase the researcher wants the data to be computed in a specific way they can add the request and the people with the skill set can carry out their requests - 2/n

Needed a suggestion on a hack that we’re building for a hackathon for DeSci, read the RFS of Allaince DAO and one of the RFS was decentralised 21 and me which will let people upload their medical data get incentives for it, in our hack we’re adding a compute layer where other people who have the skill set to - 1/n

Agreed, an evolutionary biology teacher of mine once said that psychology is an evolving science, and not there yet. Same goes with everything. Some subjects are more evolved than others, even in biology we have certain domains which will require a lot of effort in order for them to have a real world use case.

It’s just me being overly optimistic but if we do one of the first thing that I’d do with it, if we achieve it in my lifetime would be prefect this model for DNA data storage.
