1/ Successful Public health Programs rely on Engineering principles as much as medical ones It’s rare that public health is discussed with Engineering But it should be. Public Health Engineering Depts. should exist! A wonderful article by @paimadhu forbes.com/sites/madhukarpai…

Delighted to announce the publication of our work on *Microfluidic Chain Reaction* (MCR) in @Nature. MCR help realize a true lab-on-a-chip and could perform medical tests. You may download, modify, and 3D print your own MCR chip 😎 rdcu.be/cNP7l 1/n

1700 ELO. Think I’ll go eat some blitznses.
Feels like style and design has traditionally been an afterthought in biotech (understandable given we’re making drugs prescribed by doctors), but perhaps that changes in an era of talent wars and new technologies. Art, science, and entrepreneurship are each rooted in creation.

designing with biology is going to be so beautiful if we do it right 🤞

“But biological design will not be limited to steel tanks forever. What do we want to do after fermentation?”
“Until we can comprehend the majority of eukaryotic life, we are playing in the shallows of an ocean of biological potential.” Do yourself a favor and read @davian_ho on protists and what they could mean for a future synthetic biology. @JourneyToMicro growbyginkgo.com/2021/12/13/…
