- A Cambridge Zygote article on the “artificial uterus on the way to ectogenesis” was shared, highlighting progress toward fully external gestation systems.  
- The first healthy cloned rhesus monkey was reported by Chinese researchers; the breakthrough used SCNT combined with trophoblast replacement from ICSI embryos to create a “natural placenta,” reducing placental and epigenetic defects but at unchanged or lower efficiency.  
- A low-cost scanning tunneling microscope design was circulated via Hardware-X, offering an open-source path to atomic-scale imaging for DIY labs.  
- A PNAS paper on ribozyme replicase was linked, advancing the experimental demonstration of RNA-catalyzed RNA replication—key evidence for RNA-world origin-of-life models.  
- Practical biohacking hardware discussion included mounting an 18.5-inch USB-C monitor with VESA pattern inside a car glovebox using a repurposed wall TV mount, illustrating the channel’s culture of rapid prototyping and mobile lab setups.
