New in @ACSCentSci! 🧪 We engineered biocatalysts that selectively install primary amines onto aromatic feedstocks using hydroxylamine as the nitrogen source. Huge thanks to my co-authors: @CaseyAtTheVat, Ethan Lin, @Yueming_Long_ @francesarnold doi.org/10.1021/acscentsci.6…

Many experiments in biology happen one protein at a time, which means synthesizing DNA one gene at a time. This is fine for tens of genes. For thousands, the cost is unsustainable. Introducing uSort-M: a method to isolate and sequence-verify thousands of genes at low cost

This one is hard to see. The NIH Early Independence Award, one of the most competitive grants in the country for young scientists, will not go forward in FY2026. NIH says this is due to “administrative changes to funding opportunity processing and delays in approvals.”
