A comment on Garage Biology in Silicon Valley (2010). Parent comment
No, but I'd argue for a different reason than lack of resources.
I'd argue that it's simply not possible to "scratch an itch" in biology.
For mechanical and electrical engineering, there are projects that intersect with hobbies that people want to do and can do with the right equipment.
For biology, I'm not sure that I can really cough up anything interesting that intersects with many hobbies.
Craft brewing? Maybe? But that sure doesn't require much high tech equipment.
