NEW: In a world first, researchers from Oxford’s Department of Engineering Science have engineered quantum behaviour inside proteins.
The breakthrough could lead to new medical technologies, including tracking genes and molecules inside living cells.

Preprint alert! 🗞
We used SynBio to "simplify" the plant oxygen sensing pathway and implement it in yeast🍄.
We can now control yeast growth through oxygen!
But most importantly,
Here's a very short recap of what we understood thanks to it:
