Possible Projects Project: Hamsterdam Inspired by our home cities media presence in "The Wire" and it's long history as the opium den of the eastern sea ports. Team: Baltimore-US has envisioned a longterm project/goal of creating additional biopharmaceuticals. It began with a joke.. could we engineer Coca Coli, using a process like that utilized for Kiesling's project with Artemisinin, could we engineer a e.coli that could produce Cocaine and put an end to the drug war. carrying that logic further it was suggested that we could do the same for opium /morphine, putting an end to the funding of afganistani/asian terrorist organizations. I recommended we begin by attempting contact of Alexander Shulgin, creator of MDMA, one of the world's leading experts on the biomolecular construction of chemicals. Steve also suggested creating a biomachine/circuit that could be implanted for homeostatic release within the body. Tom reminded him that too much opiate could stop a heart. |  Your team picture |
