For going on two decades, amateur programmers and professional scientists alike have engaged in an unending quest to get the game "Doom" to run on, well, everything.

Now, an MIT doctoral candidate has taken the Doom thing to a whole other level by getting it to run sort of on some E. coli cells.

In a video about her stunning accomplishment and its accompanying pre-peer-reviewed paper, MIT biotech student Lauren "Ren" Ramlan admitted that getting cells to actually play Doom "would be a behemoth feat that I cannot even imagine approaching."

Nevertheless, the mad scientist points out that it's acceptable "within the culture" of "Doom runs on everything," or DROE to those within said community, to have the game's characteristic 8-bit frames "displayed on the screen of a novel device" and there are few screens more novel than Ramlan's gut bacteria cell arrays.
