Do-it-yourself Biology company ‘The Odin’ has began offering a comprehensive online biohacking course. ‘Biohacker 101 Class‘ as it is called, costs only $299.95 – which covers the reagents and lab supplies that The Odin will be shipping monthly to those who sign up. Otherwise all the learning material, including the entire course, will be made available online for free.

The four month long course begins today with basics like how to pipette, and will advance in the next four months to genetic engineering, including human genome editing. There is no prior knowledge required, and anyone can take part in the course as it begins with beginner basics.

We talked to Josiah Zayner, the founder and CEO of The Odin – and he could not contain his excitement:

“The course is going to be fucking awesome. My dream of bringing the world closer to Blade Runner is almost here!”

The former NASA scientist – who is also the first person to modify his genes using CRISPR, says thus far over 150 people have signed up.
