Today I’m joining 30+ colleagues in taking an unusual step: calling for a halt to a line of research I was excited about, the long-term effort to build “mirror life”. We’re sharing our findings in a @ScienceMagazine paper: science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… 1/6

I had an amazing time collaborating with incredibly beautiful people from all over the world 🤩 Thanks to all the @buildacell group! #buildacell #SynCell2023 #bioengineering #biotech
Today's @buildacell Workshop 10 is extremely productive, with energy carried over from #SynCell2023. Working groups are producing papers and frameworks on different important community problems. #synbio #bioengineering #biotech #biotchnology

It was great to be in Minneapolis for SynCell2023 @buildacell! Massive thanks to @KateAdamala for inviting me and organising. Here's a pic of a mini-adventure with the amazing @DoraTang5 and @DiMicheleLAB1

I really had a wonderful time at #SynCell2023 and @buildacell Workshop 10. It was great to see many old and new faces! 👏to @KateAdamala and all the students/staff members who made this happen.

Last day of #SynCell2023, we were joined by a special guest, an example of #bioengineering that went horribly right: Goldy the Gopher came to learn how to build synthetic cells. He also helped us with poster prize ceremony. @BaSyCresearch #biotech

Our @BaSyCresearch delegation at #SynCell2023 couldn't miss the chance to take a photo together with Goldy Gopher, the @UMNews mascot! Congrats to Ana, Marijn and Miyer Fabián, the best poster prize winners 👏 @buildacell @SynCellEU

Had some very fun 3 days at #SynCell2023 in Minneapolis! We listened to very original and interesting talks and I really enjoyed presenting my PhD work 🤓 My excitement might or might not be biased by the dessert table 🤩

Final day of #SynCell2023 with keynote by @PaulFreemont from @IC_CSynBio @imperialsynbio Giving us a blueprint for contructing a synthetic cell. There's remarkably little involved in actually staying alive, a trackable engineering problem. #synbio #bioengineering #biotech

Check out this article, written by @SynCellEU, about our recent @J_A_C_S papers on controlling gene expression with multiple wavelengths of light 😍 I'm also going to be presenting this work today at SynCell2023 @buildacell!!!
Replying to @DrMikeBooth
@DrMikeBooth and his team at @UCLChemistry have developed a method to turn gene expression on or off using multiple wavelengths of light. A promising technique to study complex cellular processes and advance #syntheticcell #research and #technology! More: syntheticcell.eu/2023/05/22/…
