these people have created a diy lab reactor you can synthesise medicines with, but I can’t find how to make it anywhere. can anyone find out, or share from their own knowledge?

EDIT: this is a lab reactor for organic chemistry, not a bioreactor with bacteria

That's true, I'd be hesitant to be one of the beta testers too -- though I think the goal of a machine like this would be to allow people at home to synthesize already known medicines using well tested methods. So there would be a dedicated team of professionals creating the instructions that the machine follows. More like printing a book than trying to write your own.
