Artisanal Yeast Designs
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Self-Experiments
Great cooking is not for the faint of heart. You must be imaginative! You must try things that may not work. You must not let anyone define your limits because of where you come from. What I say is true:
anyone can cook. But only the fearless can be great.

Gusteau Research Corporation is a nonprofit recreational organization. Gusteau is a signing authority that is chartered to never have any revenue, equity, intellectual property, or influence over government activities. Gusteau does not provide any professional services or offer any endorsements. Its mission is solely to promote the development and free sharing of scientific ideas and materials related to Chris Buck's personal interests as a private citizen. For complicated reasons, Gusteau is also chartered to serve as a publicly available source for samples of Chris's own blood.
Gusteau's primary current focus is the development of synthetic DNA that can enable ordinary brewer's yeast to produce bioengineered proteins of interest. It's hoped that this approach will enable homebrewers to explore the strange new world of yeast products that can support the normal healthy structure and function of the immune system.
