I'm participating in #ShutDownSTEM#Strike4BlackLives today. No research, no meetings. I'll be spending the day developing an anti-racism action plan for my future as an Early Career Researcher. Want to join me? https://t.co/c2R00mvwxV
Biology changes under different engineered conditions - microbes are amazingly adaptable, and we have saved more lives than medicine - but there is still a great deal to learn. #biology#wastewater#EBNetRC2020
Microbes really are amazing! Prof Peter Golyshin from @BangorUni explaining how petroleum degraders can help deal with oil spills, natural leakage. Also speaking on enzymes and bioprospecting, biocatalysts and CHALLENGES! #enzymes#proteins#NIBB
What does an aviation fuel project have in common with microbes? Need stakeholders to work together: incl market based measures, reduction strategies, public engagement as well as the product- here, sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). A lot EB requires the same elements. Dr Bing Xu

The committed future CO2 emissions from proposed and existing energy infrastructure represent more than the entire remaining carbon budget if mean warming is to be limited to 1.5 degrees Celsius, a Nature paper reports. https://t.co/jWQoMFgTBM
Really cool work by Alice Banks from Newcastle using Bayesian stats for multi objective optimisation and DOE to massively narrow the number of genetic circuits that need to be constructed to achieve a target behaviour #sbuk2018
Start-Stop Assembly published today in NAR! This new functionally scarless DNA assembly system is ideal for combinatorial and organism-agnostic metabolic engineering. Sharing via @Addgene https://t.co/cWwCreNflI @NAR_Open #synbio
@662Maz I hope you won't mind me latching on to this to bring attention to my daughter's effort to do some good. A retweet or two from some with a large following would be brilliant.
