• A Fraunhofer IIS face-detection SDK (FaceDetect_V490_Setup_tcm278-169082.zip) and two SysML modeling resources—Intercax’s SysML platform and Real-Time-at-Work’s SysML tools—were shared as practical engineering assets.  
• Discussion of a DIY telomere-length assay: participants floated the idea of a low-cost PCR-based kit that would let individuals track average telomere length as a dynamic biomarker for stress, omega-3 status, and age-related disease risk.  
• Elizabeth Blackburn’s lecture was summarized, noting that short telomeres predict vascular dementia and that lifestyle interventions (meditation, exercise, omega-3 supplementation) can slow or modestly reverse telomere attrition.  
• GSK’s release of its entire anti-malarial screening data set under CC0 was highlighted as an example of large-scale open pharma data; confusion was expressed over Creative Commons’ structure and the purpose of CC0.  
• EUCRIO (www.eucrio.eu) was announced as the first commercial provider of professional cryonics standby, stabilization, and transport services for Europe.  
• A Make TV video of kinetic wave sculptures was circulated as inspiration for mechanical art/engineering cross-overs.  
• Participants criticized FDA regulation that classifies all biofeedback devices—and even toothbrushes—as medical devices if therapeutic claims are made, viewing it as an impediment to consumer neurotech.  
• A tongue-in-cheek business model was proposed: clone a successful RepRap variant, sell the company, and “exit” as 3D Systems did when it acquired Desktop Factory assets.
