Lab Notebook

Things being built & imagined

Open experiments where AI meets biology — working hardware builds and exploratory concepts.

This is a living lab notebook, not a commercial catalogue. Where physical code exists, it is open on GitHub; the rest are conceptual frameworks shared in the hope they spark something useful.
