Biotechnologist Sebastian Cocioba started hacking plants to put himself through college. Now, from his home lab on Long Island, he wants to bring the tools of genetic engineering to the masses. wired.trib.al/ph2krJ9

As 2024 is about to close, the Bio Forms and Function Lab wishes you all the best in 2025! 2025 will be a special year for us (more on this in the next post). Looking forward to new beginnings while keeping good things going. A happy, rested, and hopeful New Year to you all!

Be my colleague! OIST is recruiting new unit leader(s) in the areas of energy and sustainability (broadly defined). Deadline - 15 January. Special shoutout to plant researchers - we are making a core plant care facility. And Okinawan flora is so tantalizing for research...!

Today my colleague shared with me the most EXQUISITE image of a seed the size of a dust particle, collected from a rare plant called Xylanche in Nepal, and photographed using scanning electron microscopy. Wow. 📷 Renata Piwowarczyk’s work, courtesy of Herbarium LE in St.

1/9 I am excited to share our pre-print on spatial transcriptomics in wheat spikes in collaboration with Ashleigh Lister. Using MERFISH, we resolved the expression of 200 genes to cellular resolution. Check out the pre-print 👉tinyurl.com/c7t3kncf

Government to legislate on ‘unlocking’ gene editing by March. Ministers will introduce legislation paving the way for wider use of gene-editing technology in agriculture, after scientists expressed concern that progress on the issue had stalled. researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-pol…

Normally, the Atacama Desert in Chile, receives less than 12 mm of rain a year. However in the years when rainfall is unusually high, between September and November, this can happen. It's called «desierto florido».

Engineered cells are finding their way into agriculture, living materials, consumer products and medicines. How do we design these cells and adapt regulatory rules to facilitate their safe and efficient use? #synbio #biotech rdcu.be/d8xLG
