Greenpoint buzzed last night with Brooklyn’s Bio Hack Talk, tweaking NYC’s spring at a Nassau loft. Scientist Lena Carter pitched gene edits as 150 gaped, a $15 ticket dive into DNA. It’s borough cells—pure BK vibe, science hot. A kid asked about clones; a pro jotted CRISPR. ‘Brooklyn lives—this is it,’ Carter says, flipping slides. The room turned lab.
The talk’s fresh—March 28’s start, it tripled since RSVPs, packing seats by 7 p.m. Carter’s a Williamsburg doc; last night’s crowd hit max—charts glowed. A latecomer nabbed a spot; Q&A buzzed—NYC grit shone. Ethics flared—future ruled. #BKBioHack trended; Queens wants a helix.
Some griped—’Too wild,’ sniped a skeptic, dodging sci-fi. Lights flickered—fixed quick; facts held. A rival’s pitching a Bushwick chat, splitting genes. Still, 200 stayed—cells reigned. Greenpoint’s never hacked so bold.
Carter’s teasing a series, maybe a demo if spring bites. ‘NYC’s code—this cracks it,’ she says, packing notes. The talk’s a Brooklyn win—grit meets bio. It’s a science rush; catch the next. Bring a brain—genes call.
