The @RossWaller3 Lab, with the @lilley_ks lab and @rayner_julian 's lab @TheCIMR have produced the most comprehensive map yet of where proteins are located inside the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, published in @NatureComms. Read more: bioc.cam.ac.uk/news/waller-g…
New @Cambridge_Uni feature on the wonderful work in the @CJHoweLab to develop biocells that harness the chemistry of algae to power small devices: cam.ac.uk/stories/cambridge-…
Cambridge researchers have created a device that could replace millions of small disposable batteries with a much cleaner source of energy 🔋
A team at the @CamBiochem has found a way to tap into the natural process of photosynthesis in algae and use it to generate continuous electricity 24/7 – without harming the organism at all.

ALT A group of three people stands in a library-like setting with shelves filled with books and binders. They are holding a small container, showcasing a new algae-powered biocell. There is a banner above them reading, "New Cambridge research: New algae-powered biocell technology could replace millions of disposable batteries."
