Tomorrow! Our official lab opening event in Building 2! KAUST KAUST @KaustRPP Sebastian Overmans, PhD Sergio Gutiérrez 👨‍🔬🦠🧬 @HorsingJig Gordon Wellman. Thanks #SSBBteam for all the work to get ready. Looking forward to giving lab tours!

What a great morning! We officially opened the Sustainable & Synthetic Biotechnology Research Group at #KAUST. KAUST @KaustRPP @HorsingJig Sebastian Overmans, PhD Sergio Gutiérrez 👨‍🔬🦠🧬 Gordon Wellman. Including lab tour to our senior leadership. Thanks to #BESE division for the event support!

Engineering #Chlamydomonas is a numbers game due to non-homologous end joining in the nuclear genome. Here, the process from transformation, recovery, robotic assisted selection (#PIXL), screening and phenotyping, by Gordon Wellman #SSB KAUST. Shelves by KAUST Core Labs

Interested in #cyanobacteria? Don’t miss the opportunity to hear the talk of Prof. Ilka Axmann who currently works with synthetic metabolic pathways at the Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf. Join the iGEM Phototroph kick-off event 26/6 17:00 CET: tinyurl.com/9hx7ecxs #igemphototrophs #iGEM2021

Nice to have some of the #TKS teachers stop by the #SSBlab today! Missed you Jamie House.

“Producing something is easy, but to produce something in a sustainable way, in terms of energy efficient, water efficient, chemical efficient and also sustainable—that is the challenge.” – Professor Wei Zhang from Flinders University University

I participated in the #Saudi_Census_2022! #أنا_شاركت

Postdoctoral position open in my lab! Experience with ATKA and other separation methods - required! Project on stress biology involving protein-protein, protein-metabolite interactions 👍🔥☔️☃️ @kaustcda

PhDs can be challenging and public discourse tends to focus on the negatives. To bring back some balance and positive momentum, this group of students sought to highlight the positive elements of the PhD experience. #AcademicChatter #PhDChat elifesciences.org/articles/81075…

Great team, great lab! Selfishly, I want to borrow the AKTA specialist 😅

Check out my favourite (robotic) labmate for Chlamydomonas engineering!

Stay humble my friends, you're never too experienced to perform retrophoresis 😐

Much more comfortable being behind the camera with BioE300 students in the SSB lab today 😅 PhD students/TAs Razan Yahya & Malak taking them & Takehiro A. Ozawa-Uyeda through #Chlamy transformations 🧫

Me: "Today is going to be a good day..." Omens in the confocal: #Chlamy #pareidolia

Sent off plasmids for sequencing to plasmidsaurus last Thursday. Data back today! So quick! Even after travelling ~11,100 km(~7000 mi/freedom units) 🤯🤯

Excited to kick off another year teaching the practical component of BioE300: Introduction to Genetic Engineering of Algae! Proud to still wear my badge from ACPFG's "Get Into Genes" program. Here's to another amazing semester! 🌱🧫 🦠✨

Putting this together was easier than RE cloning 😅 - thanks to GenScript!
