What do sharks, trees, and biofuels have in common? 🦈🌿⚡️

This #SharkWeek it's the exciting research of MSU's @BjoernHamberger, whose lab has engineered poplars to produce a high value chemical compound typically harvested from sharks!

Plants have their carbon and eat it too. Why can't we. Calling all biogenic VOC whisperers. Please cast your bio upon the waters!

Imagine using mushrooms 🍄 to stay cool - New research from @JohnsHopkins University microbiologist Dr. @radajbcordero, found that mushrooms and other fungi stay cooler than their surroundings. Check out this article by @epennisi on @ScienceMagazine here: https://t.co/mR9kAHRRhg

[Jake Bibik @JakeBibik]

Great thread! Shameless plug, check out our company @MelatechS which builds from these concepts to produce melanin and melanin-based biomaterials 🚀

[c0nc0rdance @c0nc0rdance]

Let's talk about radiotrophic fungi.

I want to start with the most surprising fact about them: they don't just SURVIVE in high radiation environments, they grow at *FOUR TIMES* the rate they would in background radiation.

Our best guess is they're "eating" radiation.

[Jake Bibik @JakeBibik]

Thanks Bjoern 😁

One small bell, one giant moment for bioworkers.

If we can rewrite the DNA of organisms, what will we do with the power we have to write the future of biology?

Ginkgo's bioworkers built this platform, and they're building it for everyone, so we can write that future together.

[Jake Bibik @JakeBibik]

Thank you for the recognition! It was a great meeting.

[Phytochemical Society of North America @psnaofficial]

Congratulation to our fantastic grad students who won the best poster & presentation award at the PSNA 2021 meeting!. Fantastic research from our young scientists!!

I repeat- I haven’t been this excited about a discovery since CRISPR. We found something enigmatic that, like CRISPR, is associated with microbial genomes. We have named these unique entities #BORGs
