Interesting. I have watched nearly all of The Thought Emporium’s videos (so clearly I’m an expert, lol) and I think he uses the term plasmid to describe DNA he’s working on in the crazy bio IDE he uses. I think in this instance he applied it to a yeast that he cultured and put into pills and swallowed.
He really is doing some neat stuff though. He’s inspired me to do some small bio hacking experiments and it ALMOST makes me want to go back to college.
