Thrilled to announce that @WellcomeTrust is funding research to uncover how fungi adapt to their environments! We want to understand the 'how, why, and when'. If you're interested or know someone who is, please share! 🧬🔬

Ever wanted to see how funding decisions are made? Why not join the team? @wellcometrust is looking for new expert to join our panels. The breathe of our remit is wide and we’re looking for experts from academic&non-academic settings wellcome.org/grant-funding/g…
Microbiomes influence and are influenced by our heath - but when it comes to interventions how does it all work from an ethical and regulatory perspective? Help @wellcometrust find out? Please share widely.
NEW RFP: Ethics, Regulatory Routes & Gut Microbiome-based interventions
Looking for suppliers to deliver analyses regulatory routes across different jurisdictions & on relevant ethics considerations across geographical and cultural settings. Details here

If a picture speaks a thousand words - you still need to take the picture. Lets find new ways to see how biology works. @wellcometrust just launched a bio-imaging funding call. Please share widely wellcome.org/grant-funding/s…
When looking at a genes we look at more than just As, Gs, Ts and Us - we're looking at our evolutionary history, medical present and potential weird and exiting futures. With all that comes implications - consider joining our conversation. We want to hear what you think:
How can we better integrate genomics and the ethical, legal and social contexts of genomics?
To find out, we're hosting workshops in London and Cape Town next year – and we'd like you to join us.

Hey twitter - it's been a while. Two years ago I kind of stopped tweeting. I went from very engaged, to quiet, and then absent. I left academia. At the time lots of people were also leaving, tweeting about it with bold confidence. I wasn't brave enough… (1/

Very excited to see this story out there in the world nicely done @Marcus_waal and wonderfully tweeted @ProfTomEllis
In our work on engineered living materials, a question we ask ourselves is ‘How can we use synthetic biology to make materials more sustainable?’ In our new preprint, Marcus Walker @Marcus_waal answers this with ‘Bacterial Black Sheep’.
How? Read on… 🧵⬇️

I’m fortunate to be provided with 3x free vaccines. But only only way I see us getting through this mad covid world is if globally everyone has access. Vaccines shouldn’t be a luxury, consider donating gogiveone.org/

Honoured to have been part of this. Its the end of a chapter & a big deal for me. Hopefully it helps the everyone working with #BacterialCellulose. Great work in the @ProfTomEllis lab @Marcus_waal @SilviaAragorn @SynghBio @VSenthivel @JCaroAstorga1 and more...
Very proud of this shiny new publication from my group led by @CandiedGoose which came out at ACS SynBio this weekened. A modular cloning toolkit of useful genetic parts and plasmids for programming cellulose-producing bacteria to do all sorts of things. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
And it doesn’t consider survival bias - ie no mention of the people who’ve left academia
