Together with @nevoti.bsky.social & @marcguellc.bsky.social at @melisupf.bsky.social we designed active learning activities ๐ to complement theoretical SynBio lectures, together with 3-day deductive lab session ๐งโ๐ฌ that combines mystery ๐ and #CRISPR circuits.๐
Off to Shanghai with my colleague Esteban Martรญnez for joining the organizing team of the upcoming CSH-Asia Pseudomonas SynBio hands-on Course in Suzhou and running 2 weeks of intense science with a bunch of international students www.csh-asia.org?content/2645
What a nice way to come back to office and start the new academic year!
Happy to share that the first article of mine and Gรผniz รzer Bergmanโs PhDs has been published.

โจ Over the coming weeks, get to know better the members of our society with our #EUSynBioMembers series!
๐งฌ This week we're introducing our Board members โ who they are, what they do inside and outside the lab, and what drives their interest in #SynBio! ๐ linkedin.com/feed/update/...
๐งฌ Our own Catarina Almeida represented the next generation of #SynBio leaders at #Asilomar2025!
Commemorating 50 years since the first meeting, this summit tackled biosafety, AI-driven biotech & SynBio ethics.

@marcguellc.bsky.social's team at MELIS-@upf.edu has designed a kit of eleven genetic tools for C. acnes to secrete therapeutic compounds to combat skin problems.
๐ฐIt has been reported in @cp-cellsystems.bsky.social with @gnevot.xyz and Javier Santos as first co-authors.

@synbio4allafrica.bsky.social #PlantSynBio education project will enable local students to sequence a native plant species and gain hands-on research and data analysis skills. Theyโve secured ~76% of their microgrant.
Now they need our help to cross the finish line: experiment.com/projects/exp...
@synbio4allafrica.bsky.social 's new project tries to explore a new realm at the intersection of plant synbio and biodiversity.
With this small grant, we aim to uncover a new plant genome with students attending the course!
Just spent three days at Asilomar reflecting on the stories we tell ourselves and the patterns we fall back into. On the thought terminating cliches of โpublic engagementโ of science: open.substack.com/pub/oscillat...
Honored to be elected as a Fellow of the #American Academy of #Microbiology! This recognition reflects the incredible work of my past and present collaborators, students, and mentors. Deep gratitude to my nominators and the microbiology community for their support!๐๐
Molecular mechanisms at the heart of modern Synthetic Biology inspire stunning choreographies at Asilomarโan unforgettable after-dinner social event! ๐

Synthetic biology in focus: Policy issues and opportunities in engineering life
#SyntheticBiology can transform industries and health, boost economies, and tackle societal challenges.
Our new paper synthesises findings of over 60 experts who met regularly in 2023-24 to explore opportunities, challenges, and policy needs.

"Genes are... the easy part" @philipcball.bsky.social argues biologists need to embrace complexity from the start, rather than beginning with oversimplified "one gene, one trait" models

RefSeq's CheckM results for GCF_047361035.1, showing 97.99% completeness and 0.39% contamination.
A quick reminder: if CheckM reports an assembly as <100% complete and >0% contaminated, that doesn't necessarily mean it's incomplete or contaminated. Here are RefSeq's CheckM results for a genome I'm confident is 100% complete and 0% contaminated.

Excited to see this projecte developing so greatly! We published an interview with Javier Santos a couple of years ago about the #skindev kick-off ellipse.prbb.org/skindev-a-sy... and are very proud and happy to see how far it's gone! Congrats @gnevot.xyz and all those involved!
We're also excited about C. acnes!!! ๐
If you reached until here I guess you are as excited about C. acnes as we are! All our plasmids are available in @addgene.bsky.social and @sevaplasmids.bsky.social for you to play. We are also happy to collaborate to advance C. acnes! All the info in our paper๐
