Preprint is out looking at the attitudes of patients towards microbiome engineering 🦠 ⚙️ CSSB Lab James Kinross

Hearing a super impressive mammalian synbio talk now from Northwestern Joshua Leonard #ngsb24 - Very good to have some medical applications as we’re sitting in an old hospital room.

Next talk at #NGSB24 is Katie Galloway from MIT Katie Galloway - This is a really awesome engaging talk. Memes, Stories, Props. Katie even brought along a ZipString too. I want to buy one!

Amazing talk from Tom Ellis on engineering multicellularity in yeast! And Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter feature...see link below to preprint

Diego Oyarzun is next at #NGSB24 who is going deep into how we train AI models from biological datasets and revealing some fascinating limitations and ways around them. Really great talk.

Thoroughly enjoyed Next-Gen Synthetic Biology #NGSB24 in Ghent. A special blend of incredible speakers and laid back forum to chat science. Halfway home with a head buzzing with ideas and a lengthy reading list for next week.👩‍🔬📚 Thanks to the organisers! @VIBConferences

Happy New Year everyone. Just a reminder that there are 3 days left to apply for a BBSRC-funded PhD position with myself and julie aspden on ribosome synthetic biology!

1) Today I, alongside over 160 parliamentarians, have written to the England and Wales Cricket Board urging them to speak out against the Taliban's unconscionable oppression of women and girls and boycott their upcoming match against Afghanistan in the Champions Trophy.

We are recruiting 2 postdocs for the ACROPATH project, which aims to develop artificial cells for diagnosis of pathogen infections. This is a joint UK-Japan collaboration with secondments at project partners. Deadline is Monday 3rd February. Details of the positions are below.

Fully funded PhD opportunity - Join a multidisciplinary team to investigate ultraviolet vision in fish. You will learn about protein dynamics in vision and gain experience in cutting-edge techniques in structural biology. More information here: lnkd.in/eMykhMde

Alright be honest - who knew it was World Metrology Day? 😄
