A team of biohackers is developing the first open source protocol to produce insulin simply and economically. The hope is that their work will serve as the basis for generic production of insulin and provide a foundation for continued research into improved versions of the life saving biologic. We spoke to Anthony Di Franco, co-founder of the Open Insulin project and a board member of Counter Culture Labs, about the work, the challenges they are encountering, and whether the DIY movement can teach the corporate world anything about cost-effective innovation.
