In Tokyo, young science enthusiasts are making tattoos of DNA strands, atoms, and robotics blueprints a growing trend. University students in engineering and biotechnology programs see these tattoos as a badge of their academic dedication, carrying the subjects they love permanently on their skin.
Tattoo studios report that many designs include realistic DNA helices with color-coded bases, circuit board patterns, or chemical formulas. For students, it’s a way of keeping science alive beyond the classroom, while sparking conversations about innovation and discovery in Japan’s education system.
