Extremely cool: UCSD chemists have come up with a way to screen molecules using CD players. The project is called DISCODE, and their info page is here. They've printed molecules onto a CD using a damn inkjet printer, soaked the CD in a solution, and then played the CD and watched for errors, and, hence, hits. They seem to be open-sourcers, as well. Not only will we all soon be our own programmers, running our own personalized versions of Linux, we'll all soon be able to do biomolecular screening at home. The future is looking strange.
