@geochurch The best two beards of synbio meet. Would rate 10/10. #beardedscientists #iGEM2018 #GiantJamboree @imperialigem #synbio

Can’t wait to read this over the Easter break! Brilliant work @NikoMcCarty @AsimovPress , the sheer quality of the book and its presentation is top notch, you’ve pulled out all the stops! Is it strange that the minute we get our hands on some DNA we want to send it fr sequencing?

This is incredibly cool! Looking forward to reading this in both formats!
Our second book is now available for pre-order. 🎉 Embracing the book's technology theme, we did something special: We encoded the entire book into DNA & packaged it into stainless steel capsules, where it will live for tens of thousands of years. 1,000 copies were made... 🧵

Wow @IgemImperial made it to the top 10 #iGEM2022! Huge congratulations for the well deserved recognition! Bring some croissants to celebrate :) #proudsupervisor Learn more about the project: 2022.igem.wiki/imperial-coll… @ImperialBioeng @imperialcollege @IC_CSynBio
Well done @IgemImperial team in your first presentation at the #iGEM2022 jamboree! If you 🫵🏼 are in Paris tomorrow Thursday, don’t miss their talk at 14:00 in plaza 4 and learn how engineered spores can help fight hunger & come to the poster to discuss with the team! 🦠⚙️🌱

Thank you so much to my two amazing supervisors @ProfTomEllis @LedesmaAmaro for putting up with me for all of these years! A massive thanks to @DrLeoRios and Karen Polizzi for their valuable and insightful Viva experience! And thank you to all of those who shared all these years
Congratulations to Dr Amrit Singh @SynghBio on passing his PhD viva today. Amrit was the first ever member of the @LedesmaAmaro group and a joy to co-supervise. 👏👨‍🎓🎓

If “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it” was a scientific experiment and still one of the coolest experiments being done

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…

I feel I’ve come up with a much more suitable exclamation when an experiment doesn’t go as planned. I’ll be replacing the overused “oh ffs” with this:

Hahaha! That’s got to be one of the best interactions I’ve seen on Twitter 😂😂😂

Have a look at our #synbio review about C1 substrates utilisation (methanol, formate, CO2 and others) just out in @nchembio. Amazing labs have done amazing progress in this field! Is efficient C1 utilisation in heterologous microbes possible by #meteng? >> rdcu.be/cpWaB
A review article by @LedesmaAmaro @weijian16329397 and colleagues surveys natural metabolic pathways for utilization of C1 substrates and their adaptation towards creating synthetic C1-utilizing microbes. Free to read: rdcu.be/cpWaB nature.com/articles/s41589-0…
