1. A personal laboratory apparatus having multiple multi-use devices for genetic engineering of bacteria or yeast, the apparatus comprising:
a common housing having the multiple multi-use devices for genetic engineering including:
a tube cooling station comprising a plurality of test tube holders each to receive a respective test tube, the tube cooling station maintained at a temperature between about 0° C. and about 17° C.;
a tube heating station comprising a plurality to test tube holders each to receive a respective test tube, the tube heating station maintained at a temperature between about room temperature and about 50° C.;
an incubator, the incubator maintained at a temperature between about room temperature and about 50° C.;
a bioreactor; and
a microcontroller in electrical communication with and for receiving temperature data from the tube cooling station, the tube heating station, the incubator, and the bioreactor, and for sending said temperature data as output signals; and
a touch screen, the touch screen in electrical communication with the microcontroller for receiving the output signals and to display the output signals as the current temperature of each of at least one of the tube cooling station, the tube heating station, the incubator, and the bioreactor, and operative to receive user input as feedback control to the microcontroller for adjusting the current temperature of at least one the cooling station, the heating station, the incubator, and the bioreactor by feedback to the microcontroller,

wherein each of the multiple multi-use devices for genetic engineering are operable to grow and engineer bacteria or yeast simultaneously.
