A great story in the @guardian about the amazing work being done by @BetterOrigin. As an owner of pet chickens myself I am delighted with this approach to making sustainable protein theguardian.com/environment/…

Great opening to @Biofabricate_ in Soho from @Biocouture - defining what #biomaterial #biofabricated & #biobased mean. We need clarity & understanding to build supply chains & make a real difference at scale #biofab. Proud to be here with @SaraLejonDodd for @CambConsultants

Well done to everyone @catalogdna whose tech has been recognised as one of the top innovations in 2019. Their technology is a real leap forward in #dnadatastorage, reducing the cost and massively increasing the rate of DNA data storage possible x.com/catalogdna/status/1145…

At CATALOG, we are building and commercializing technologies that use DNA as a medium for data storage and computing. Our DNA writer made Time Magazine's list of best inventions of 2019! time.com/collection/best-inv… #dna #datastorage #synbio

Helping train a @CambConsultants colleague on AnthaOS this week. In two half days he's progressed from having never used Antha, to designing and debugging his own DOE workflows independently. The @CAidedBiology community is growing. Nice work @synthace! #ComputerAidedBiology!

Nice! Unbiased selection of FACS parameters based on transcriptomic data, enabling label-free sorting of cell-types we don't have antibodies for. This has potential to reduce cost of cell & gene therapy manufacture, which relies heavily on cell sorting #engbio #CellandGeneTherapy
Cool new technology presented by @MauroJMuraro at #GENSERIESUK19. Get your cell types sorted without genetic manipulation or antibodies! Cell Type Purification by Single-Cell Transcriptome-Trained Sorting sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
There is so much incredible technology built into biology that requires the right experimental technique to visualise. Who knew slime moulds were so cool and created exquisitely synchronised patterns? #dictostelium @ContamClub #biology #Biotechnology

Had a great time representing @CambConsultants at the #ComputerAidedBiology launch event thanks to @Fane_Mensah for hosting brilliantly and @gemmamilne for leading an excellent panel discussion. Great catching up with established and new faces @synthace!

I really enjoyed preparing this piece with @SynBioBeta - I hope the message comes through that successful #synbio companies have a lot more qualities than just great tech.
Leading by example: how @AquaBountyTech, @OxfordBiomedica, and @berkeley_lights have successfully brought products to market bit.ly/2IwGGrn @SynBioJamesH @CambConsultants

Go and visit stand #254 if you're at #synbiobeta2019 @CambConsultants have the best microbiome related board game around! Say hi to @ELNSMNS and @SynBioJamesH who can teach you how to play Gut Check! #microbiome #synbio

We’ve set up Gut Check at stand 254, feel free to have a go in the breaks and remind yourself of the wonders of the #microbiome! 🦠 #synbiobeta2019

Tried to write down every word of this ridiculously special keynote from @francesarnold @Caltech 🧪 let’s drive the creation of things that biology never thought about... and still remember nature is the world’s best chemical engineer and biologist 🧬 #synbiobeta19

Biologists have a new tool to monitor gene expression in places light microscopes can't see. Genetically-encoded acoustic contrast agents now enable ultrasound imaging to read gene expression. 9 bacterial genes refactored for a mammalian chassis! #synbio authors.library.caltech.edu/…

Excited to announce that our paper on automated design of RNA 3D structure has just been published! We demonstrated that using RNAMake, we built highly stable RNA structures, functional tethered ribosomes and improve the affinity of RNA aptamers. rdcu.be/bO6fs
