- The diving reflex was highlighted as a physiological mechanism that not only triggers bradycardia and peripheral vasoconstriction but also limits nitrogen uptake, thereby reducing the risk of decompression sickness in breath-hold diving.  
- “Hookah” or “snuba” diving—using a floating surface-supplied air compressor and long hose—was discussed as an accessible way to explore shallow reefs without the complexity of SCUBA tanks.  
- A YouTube keynote titled “#WeAreNotWaiting: how open source is changing healthcare” was shared, illustrating the community’s interest in decentralized, DIY medical innovation.  
- The DIY genetic-modifications wiki page (http://diyhpl.us/wiki/genetic-modifications/) was updated to include PDE10A and BDKRB2 as candidate genes, reflecting ongoing cataloging of targets for cognitive or physiological enhancement.  
- An Outside magazine article (https://www.outsideonline.com/2395803/snakebite-antivenom-tim-friede) profiling Tim Friede’s self-immunization experiments against snake venom was circulated, underscoring extreme biohacking approaches to antivenom development.
