MoonTag is a new programmable transcriptional activator. You can see how it can be used to activate plant genes at: https://t.co/NAO03782kM

[Matt Zinselmeier @MZinselmeier]

Excited to share our work on Programmable Transcriptional Activators (PTAs) for plants! We started by screening a library of activation domains in monocots&dicots, culminating in using these PTAs to activate enhancers in protoplasts. https://t.co/GyWXvl9YBr

@Gerardodiazor Congratulations!!!

[Building Better Bugs @Smanski_Lab]

Looking for a postdoc? We are currently hiring plant synthetic biologist to work on an exciting and collaborative DoE project.

[Armando Casas-Mollano @Armandomics]

@Gerardodiazor Congrats!!!! we need to celebrate

@kumar2501 @ThePlantCell @friendzhang @UMNews @RakeshTuli11 @NABI_India @OfficialPU @DBTIndia Congrats!!!!

[Fernando A Gonzales @ElFer73]

Our book has been successfully published! Thanks to @DrAlfredoTorre1, Nilton Lincopan, and all the contributing authors who made this possible! The book represents the most up-to-date collection of data produced by scientists from LatA about pathogenic E coli.

@Alvaro_Taype Ya he visto el mismo comentario en otros tweets, pero nadie "cae" con estas empresas, el que compra una autoria sabe que lo que esta haciendo no es etico y si se beneficia con esto esto se convierte en un estafador.

[Armando Casas-Mollano @Armandomics]

@cientificospe @nmonteblanco @MaytaTristan @Joe_Lucero_ Con las noticias de autorias compradas que estan surgiendo, lo primero que hace el CONCYTEC es recordarte en tu CTI vitae que el Curso de Conducta Responsable en Investigación NO es requisito para la calificación RENACYT.

[Armando Casas-Mollano @Armandomics]

@nmonteblanco @ConcytecPeru igual le estas pagando a una empresa para que te haga un articulo de una tesis, que luego tiene que ser revisado por la revista de la que la misma empresa es propietaria. Donde esta la revision imparcial?

[Armando Casas-Mollano @Armandomics]

@ChenxinLi2 Need to try that, a glass of sake you said?

In this review, we present a meticulous description of the role of Artificial Inteligence (AI) in the design of guide RNA sequences and in improving the efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9 system.

#CRISPR; ... expressed in plants to high levels without any deleterious effects.

[Building Better Bugs @Smanski_Lab]

We did not set out to develop new #SynBio tools for plants, but when the existing tools weren't cutting it (or more specifically weren't expressing it), postdoc Armando Casas-Mollano decided we needed improved CRISPRa for plants. [1/2]https://t.co/UW105fBzO7

@NickDesnoyer @bencives Would you mind letting me know which promoters are you using?

[Armando Casas-Mollano @Armandomics]

@Gerardodiazor @Cholega Es exactamente lo que me estaba preguntando. Ahora quisiera ver el mapa de polladas per capita para contrastar

[Armando Casas-Mollano @Armandomics]

@gorjeda @ConcytecPeru Otra duda, que son pequeñas empresas de investigación? Hacen investigación con fines de lucro? que venden?

[Armando Casas-Mollano @Armandomics]

@gorjeda @ConcytecPeru Pensé que parte de la evaluación del proyecto seria determinar cuántos estudiantes se van a capacitar realizando tesis. Si no hay estudiantes en el tema del proyecto en tu institución, como te aprueban el proyecto?
