Want to gather personal data from technologies only available to scientific research?

Hi,

I’ve been wanting to track several variables related to my own body but the variables I want to track can only be gathered from technologies only available for scientific research. I’d like to know if any of you have ever faced similar difficulties? Have you ever wished you could acquire personal data with technologies only available for scientific research (not commercially available)? If yes, which technologies?

I’ve also been wondering if it could make sense to create some sort of organization that would connect self-trackers who want to use technologies they don’t have access to with scientists who have access to these technologies and might benefit from the participation of motivated people?

Please let me know what you think by answering this post and/or by sending me an email through the following address: quantifiedexploration@gmail.com .
