Weak Signal/Emerging Trend--Amateurs Trying Genetic Engineering at Home
I would submit that we have an emerging trend in home based bio/genetic engineering.
"People can really work on projects for the good of humanity while
learning about something they want to learn about in the process,"
stated 31-year-old computer programmer Meredith L. Patterson.
Future Trend In the Making--information technologies started in the
garage, how about the dining room table for genetic engineering.
Why are we starting to see this trend you might ask? I believe
there are a couple reasons leading to genetic engineering in a
non-traditional laboratory, more educated individuals, access to
information and experts through the internet from around the world, access to much less expensive
laboratory equipment, and access to supplies for the experiments.
People with a passion to solve problems in our everyday lives will
have another great adventure. Just as our grand parents started cross
breading cattle and hogs to achieve better traits and improve their
performance, now armed with information and tools we can transform our
local economies and livelihoods once again.
What short term and long term tools, resources and skills as a
community should we be helping these problems solvers of the future
become successful and experience a rewarding passion to help
themselves, the community, and world?
What other examples do you have that reflect this weak signal?
