The ODIN

10/16/2026

what happens when you bring bacteria, yeast, and plants into the same genetic engineering lab?

you get the Engineer Across Life bundle.

our new kit brings together three different organisms and three approaches to genetic engineering, giving you a chance to explore molecular biology beyond a single system.

whether you’re experimenting at home, teaching biology, or just curious about how genetic engineering works across different forms of life, there’s a lot to discover here.

just a reminder that you can get 30% off eligible kits with code NEWODIN30 through october 20.

happy experimenting!

new name. new site. new logo. same goal: make biotechnology something you can actually do.

we’ve spent the last few months rebuilding everything. new products, better protocols, a new site.

we’re bigger than a biotech shop now.

kits are still a huge part of it, but we’re also building sequencing, custom genetic engineering services, and more ways to do biology outside traditional institutions.

keep up with us

The ODIN is dead.

the odin is dead. long live the open discovery institute.

we’ve been working on this for months, and it’s finally here.

new name, new identity, completely redesigned website, new protocols, and a whole lot of other things we’ve been dying to show you.

we’ve changed a lot, but the whole reason we started this hasn’t.

we still believe science should be something you can actually do, not just something you read about. you shouldn’t need access to a university lab to experiment with biotechnology.

and we’re not stopping here. we’re working on expanding our genomic services too, so expect a lot more from us in the coming months.

for now, enjoy the new odin. we’ve put a ridiculous amount of work into it.

and since we’re celebrating, seems like a pretty good excuse for a sale.

30% off eligible kits all week with code NEWODIN30.

october 14–20 at the-odin.com

can’t stop thinking about it ngl

Honestly this is so much of the job 😭
