Read about the excellent biotechnology research happening across The University of Edinburgh, demonstrating the knowledge and commitment to accelerating progress towards Net Zero: ow.ly/qvgB50Oq2HA Louise Horsfall | The Wallace Lab | Centre for Engineering Biology | ECCI | Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh |


Join us The Wallace Lab for an exciting collaborative PhD opportunity with De Monchy Aromatics studying the design of new bacteria to convert🗑into fragrance & flavour compounds using #synbio. The application deadline is Friday 2nd June. Don't miss out! Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh Centre for Engineering Biology


New publication!📰 Check out how we engineered #Pseudomonas putida as a whole-cell #biosensor for a variety of chemicals! Great work from Javier Hernández Sancho MaGracia Daniel Volke Pablo Iván Nikel @pabnik.bsky.social and the team of Lianet Noda a thread 👇(1/n) doi.org/10.1038/s41467…





By a happy coincidence, our report on Engineering Biology is published on the same day as the The Royal Society have their #TransformingOurFuture event on engineering biology. Looking forward to hearing from Government Office for Science at the RS event later

For our latest case study, C-Source Renewables and Stephen Wallace from The University of Edinburgh used our Feasibility Fund to look at the potential for bread & potato #waste to be used as a #glucose replacement for the #bioproduction of 3 chemicals. For details⤵️ buff.ly/40qBD3V

Wonderful to see our upcoming work highlighted by the recent UK House of Lords report on #EngineeringBiology and to work with The University of Edinburgh, Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh, STV News & BBC News (UK) to promote what can be achieved in this emerging field. Remember: waste is carbon, and therefore a resource.


Great to see our upcoming work highlighted by the recent UK House of Lords report on #EngineeringBiology and particularly this project by our PhD student Cordelia Kao, showcased by BBC News (UK) and STV News !

New paper out in Nature Catalysis! We used a retrobiosynthesis approach to engineer PKSs for the production of new-to-nature valerolactam analogs. Later, we developed a strategy to polymerize these monomers to create novel nylon-5 derivatives. Check it out nature.com/articles/s4192…
