🫣 Now for something a little different from the lab: a data-centric approach to building digital twins as a route to control of emergent population level behaviours in microbial swarms 🤔 If that means nothing to you, then just check out the video! doi.org/10.1098/rsif... #engbio #control

Purple Cell Drawing Magnet attached to a bulk size shiny metal baked bean can. In the top of the can can be seen paintbrushes and a dried teazel.

I acquired this paintbrush pot from a skip outside the art school refectory. And you know what? That's right, magnets stick to it.

This is Purple Cell Drawing Magnet and I think it's my favourite ❤️

Compartmentalisation Magnet attached to a wood-burning stove. The baby spiders from a large spider plant cascades down the side of the stove.

You can attach a magnet to a wood-burning stove but I would *strongly advise* removing it when the winter comes!!! These magnets are durable but not that durable.

This is Compartmentalisation Magnet and you can get one here
