It doesnt matter how much there is left to learn, the novice just copies the master till they figure it out. Biotech is all go, the pace of development is crazy - has a lot of similarities with computing. A thousand years would be less than a blink in the scheme of things, but its just going to be decades before synthetic biology is everywhere, creating this stuff in the lab is already routine. You can 'print' out dna you knocked up on the computer, inject it into a host cell and hey presto, you have a custom designed synthetic organism.
