Balaji Srinivasan proposes a western version of the special economic zone where builders can operate at the speed of physics, not permits. “The special Elon zone, or more generally, the special founder zone... It’s like an essentially uninhibited territory, as close to Burning Man as possible” Ben Horowitz: “I think that’s very doable. There’s so many states in the US that would wanna do that. I know Nevada would wanna do that.” @balajis and @bhorowitz on Network State podcast

Intense next week with 4 seminars on various aspects of #bioeconomy/#biotech/#synbio organized by the Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Biotechnology and Environmental Protection of @UPTimisoara w/@SteBiotech of @unimib . Looking forward to be there with @BiocoderdojoT ninjas!

Congratulations to our scientist, Laurent Simons, for earning his PhD in quantum physics at just 15—an exceptional achievement. In our lab, Laurent’s work focuses on in silico biology to accelerate treatment of devastating diseases. We’re thrilled to have him on the team.

Some people say that if you look into genomes for too long, you can even see comments left by the Software Engineer. 😀

Many of the most complex and useful functions in biology emerge at the scale of whole genomes. Today, we share our preprint “Generative design of novel bacteriophages with genome language models”, where we validate the first, functional AI-generated genomes 🧵

Have to get people off the lab bench if you want more people contributing to bioengineering earlier in their careers. it just takes too long to learn all the tacit knowledge of bench work. you have to automate biotech lab work to democratize it.
