Since my Solarpunk list was liked so much I decided to just continue with the Sci-fi subgenres.

Biopunk is a sci-fi subgenre that fuses biology, technology, and often dystopian themes. It involves themes of genetic engineering, body modifications, biotechnology, and the ethical consequences of these advancements on society. The subgenre is closely related to cyberpunk and has lots of overlap. We follow underdogs that fight against the dystopian system or try to carve a little bit of freedom.

coined by the singaporean sci-fi writer, researcher, and queer activist Ng Yi-Sheng, spicepunk is, "a recent-ish wave of speculative fiction and fantastical arts, countering Western(ised) hegemonic modernity with alternative visions anchored in Southeast Asian heritage and history."
