taqdot
Taqdot is intended to serve as a means for the synthetic, intentional and open-source biology movement to communicate, share resources and advance innovation in the same way that home computer clubs drove the personal computer revolution and that open-source programming is leading true innovation in computer technology.

This site was created and is maintained by Lewis Perdue with help from William Perdue.

Lew studied biology and physics at Cornell University (B.S. 1972) and has continued to follow molecular genetics and the potential quantum characteristics of cellular microtubules, particularly in neurons.
