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:

Fantastic talks and conversations at #Syncell2023 and @buildacell at UMN last week. Can’t wait to see you all next year 🤗

I had an amazing time collaborating with incredibly beautiful people from all over the world 🤩
Thanks to all the @buildacell group!

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.

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.

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 👏

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 🤩

How to make a cell? From the man that did it.
#SynCell2023 keynote by John Glass from @JCVenterInst showing the process of making a Mycoplasma based synthetic cell.

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.

A #SynCell2023 talk about useful things we can do with cell-free systems by @SebastianMaerkl of the @MaerklLab:
cheaper PURE systems, chemoststs and other useful #bioengineering tricks.

Day 2 of #SynCell2023 opened by @DoraTang5 talking about synthetic cell toolkits.
Fascinating talk about investing general principles of life to rebuild it.

Keynote by @AviSchroeder at #SynCell2023
On biomedical applications of synthetic cell technologies and using #ArtificialIntelligence in unexpected ways. Synthetic cells used from cancer to food production and shrimp.

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!

Important milestone towards engineering an autonomous synthetic cells.
Tiny protein-making factories in cells, called ribosomes, have been made to self-replicate outside cells for 1st time.
A "huge milestone" for building artificial self-replicating cells & understanding life's origin. @KateAdamala told @newscientist.
