'''Biohacking''' has two common meanings. <br />
<br />
The first is derived from the [[biopunk]] [[Wikipedia:biopunk|(WP)]] movement in which people create [[Wikipedia:synthetic biology|synthetic_biology]] using [[DIYbio]] [[Wikipedia:DIYbio|(WP)]]. By mixing and matching genes and characteristics from different species, biopunks are "biohacking."<br />
<br />
<br />
The second meaning of biohacking refers to the art of managing one's own biology using a combination of medical, nutritional, electronic, and Quantified Self techniques. The term is in common use by several public figures:<br />
*[[Wikipedia:tim ferriss|Tim Ferriss]] wrote about biohacking in ''The Four Hour Body''<br />
*Dave Asprey of "The Bulletproof Executive" <ref>http://www.bulletproofexec.com</ref> about whom the Financial Times wrote "Indeed, why not give yourself an 'upgrade', says Dave Asprey, a 'bio-hacker' who takes self-quantification to the extreme of self-experimentation. He claims to have shaved 20 years off his biochemistry and increased his IQ by as much as 40 points through 'smart pills', diet and biology-enhancing gadgets."<ref>http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/3ccb11a0-923b-11e0-9e00-00144feab49a.html#ixzz1nEXP9Ljn </ref><br />

*Neurosurgeon [[Wikipedia:Jack Kruse|Jack Kruse]] who writes "Our hypothalamus rewires to many stimuli and it appears that temperature is a major factor in the rewiring protocol of our brain...Our job as enquiring primal bio-hackers is to figure out why and how this might have happened." <ref>http://jackkruse.com/cold-thermogenesis-1-theory-to-practice-begins/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=cold-thermogenesis-1-theory-to-practice-begins </ref><br />
