Melina presented the TU_Braunschweig #iGEM2022 project: LionDetct. How to amplify weak signals over the detection threshold? https://t.co/VtFqemPWMN

[Melina S. Nowak @MelinaNwk]

Last week, guests from Peru visited the PuckerLab.
I was pleased to present our Victoria Project, highlighting our latest achievements 📊🧬
I also had the opportunity to present our iGEM2022 project again, highlighting our journey and achievements from 2022🧬⚙️

Melina revealed some secrets of the giant waterlily Victoria cruziana: how much weight can the leaves carry and what causes the flower color change from white to pink? https://t.co/Hh5XuwCj7H

[Boas Pucker @boas_pucker]

Did you know? 🌸 The color change from white to pink in the giant waterlily (Victoria) is due to increased anthocyanin biosynthesis! 🌺

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the incredible diversity and importance of plants in our lives!💚 #PlantDay #PlantDay18May #plants

[Boas Pucker @boas_pucker]

Long day in the lab with @MelinaNwk @BenniHarder resulted in a successfully started direct RNA sequencing run on our MinION. Super excited about the first RNA sequencing experiment @PuckerLab. Many more runs will follow soon. #Genomics #Bioinformatics

Our team got the silver medal at the Grand Jamboree in Paris🥳It was a great experience for us to participate in iGEM and to realize our idea in a project. Yesterday we presented our final project at our university. It was a great afternoon with a lot of great feedback.

Hard working @iGEM_TU_BS members managed to design a great wiki over the last days. Have a look at the wiki with a comprehensive documentation of the social media and outreach activities: https://t.co/7GOa7hDD7m #iGEM2022
