Delighted to announce our new Perspective on the MEP pathway and oxidative stress in Nature Communications. Thanks co-conspirators Jordi Perez Gil, @JBehrendorff and Andy Douw for helping get this story out …🧵 nature.com/articles/s4146…

Welcome to our team and to Syddansk Universitet, Ru!

Finally the last part of my PhD thesis got published, thanks to the amazing the supervision of Manuel Rodriguez-Concepcion and the support of Pablo Perez Colao in handling more experiments :) A very important work for my future projects.. I would say ;)

We are developing a platform that has a "limitless" ability to engineer diatoms #SyntheticDiatoms. Our next virtual meeting is on Sep 26th at 8 a.m. EST. Message us if you would like to attend. We look forward to any possibility of SynBioBeta and DARPA collaborations

If you are interested in #algae (#diatoms) #synbio and #carotenoids, make sure to follow SORTED_, an #MSCA project lead by Luca Morelli, starting soon in our group Syddansk Universitet SDU-Department of Green Technology

🦠 Bioengineered phytoplankton for heavy metal detection! In the AquaBiosens project, we re-engineer #phytoplankton's natural genetic programs to interact with handheld devices. 🔬 Read more from Michele Fabris, SDU: shorturl.at/rbnRK #bioengineering #water #diatom

🌟 A new era in diatom engineering begins! Congratulations Emma Jane Walker and all authors !!!

Off to a great start with the SORTED_ project! Proud to support this exciting project in our group, led by Luca Morelli #algae #diatom #synbio #MSCA

On Monday some of the first baby steps of SORTED will be presented.. #ready? ;)

Less than one week ago I could present some of the #SORTED SORTED_ project in the Symposium organised by this amazing and supportive community Pride in Microbiology. It has been great to share my research and learn more about other micro-fields around the world!

Our colleague Payal Patwari absolutely nailing her pitch #poster talk at #nextgenerationsyntheticbiology #NGSB24 showcasing a bit of diatoms #potential ;)

Proud of Payal Patwari presenting her work on #diatom metabolite #biosensors for #strain #engineering at #NGSB24! Science at VILLUM

Great pitch by Luca Morelli presenting his #MSCA project SORTED_, on #diatoms #carotenoids #synbio. And that’s only 1 of the 2 posters he’s presenting at #NGSB24!

P. tricornutum is a go-to workhorse in #algae #biotech and #synbio, but different strains of the same species can have strikingly diverse traits. Our latest work, led by Luca Morelli unveils these differences:: doi.org/10.1016/j.alga… Science at VILLUM Novo Nordisk Foundation

🔬 Research from Luca Morelli & Michele Fabris at Syddansk Universitet is key for optimizing diatom-based biosensors for metal detection. Strain-specific variations may impact performance. 📖Read more: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Florian Pruckner Payal Patwari

Welcome to #SynXVI. In the 90s if you heard about #genome sequencing you would have scratched your head. We think finishing the last chromosome of Sc2.0 will be a similar moment in biological history! Humankind's first #synthetic #eukaryote is here. nature.com/articles/s4146…

🌊🔬 The 8th Int'l Diatom Meeting is coming to Ghent! Join top researchers & young scientists at #MLD8 to explore diatom biology, ecology & biotech. Network, share ideas & enjoy Belgium’s gastronomy. Don’t miss it! Info: vibbio.tech/3Q3R38c #Microalgae #DiatomResearch

We have three openings in our lab starting as soon as April 1st : 1 Research Associate 1 Postdoctoral Fellow 1 PhD Student The team will work on a project that aims to create synthetic plant genomes. For more information, email: [email protected] with the title "Syntato"
