[Global Community Bio Summit @globalbiosummit]

Our friends @TheTechInteract and @biophilebytes are presenting at the #STEMvideohall! After watching, you can show support in the form of Twitter likes and shares! The team is bringing #biotinkering #biomaking #syntheticbiology to informal learning! https://t.co/xkpNR6Zsec

[Anja Scholze @biophilebytes]

We made a little video about our work for the STEM for All Video Showcase. Check it out and ask us questions if you want! #biotinkering

[The Tech Interactive @TheTechInteract]

Know what it's like to work with STEM rock stars? We do! @biophilebytes @James0m0wong9 and @benchadjacent are helping make BioTinkering accessible for all. #STEMvideohall

New GloFish waiting in the lab to move in to their new home in @TheTechInteract’s #aquaponics system!

Don't just drink kombucha for #NationalBoochDay... instead use it to grow unique biomaterial!

Your presents will cause quite the reaction when you use biology and chemistry to create the perfect gift tags. 🧪🎨 The BioTinkering Lab is back for the holidays!

[The Tech Interactive @TheTechInteract]

The BioTinkering Lab was full of beautiful, biodegradable color today! Thank you to everyone who was part of our Holiday Cabbage Inks activity, see you tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. for more!

[Anja Scholze @biophilebytes]

This photo really makes me miss Bio Inks! Such a fun activity. #biotinkering

[The Tech Interactive @TheTechInteract]

Let it snow... snowflakes made from natural pigments?! ❄️ Throwback to BioInks, where we extracted pH-sensitive pigment from bacteria to make ink 🧫🎨! You too can create your own natural paints at home with our Cabbage Inks activity!

Callie is so amazing!

[Callie Chappell @eco_genome]

Let’s celebrate culture, both microbial and social! 🦠 As a @mirzayanfellow, I led a community art project with the Board on Life Sciences at @theNASEM. We grew #KombuchaLeather in the office 🧫 to make microbial portraits! Blog: https://t.co/Q4jvcDGUPT

"Planting seeds and growing community" next up in @globalbiosummit in the D&I Power of Community track. @genspacenyc @Xinampa_Bio @SalinasLuggers @TheTechInteract @biophilebytes @CountrCultrLabs #GlobalBioSummit #CommunityBio

[Anja Scholze @biophilebytes]

Here we go! So excited for @globalbiosummit time and today is the Learning and Education track!

#NationalMushroomDay 🍄

[Anja Scholze @biophilebytes]

This was such a fun project that we did in collaboration with @MycoWorksInc many years ago! These mycelium tables still get used every day by visitors doing bio-making activities in our #BiotinkeringLab ! #biodesign #mycelium #biotinkering #mushrooms

[The Tech Interactive @TheTechInteract]

Mushrooms. It’s what’s for dinner… table. On #NationalMushroomDay 🍄, peep our custom BioTinkering Lab tables made with the Reishi mushroom + agricultural waste + some help from our friends at @MycoWorksInc ! Sustainable science at its finest.

[keithbraafladt @keithbraafladt]

Yay my first SCOBY/bacterial nanocellulose/kombucha leather! thank you @biophilebytes for the encouragement and tips, the and thanks to #giybiobuddies 's great video as well

[Anja Scholze @biophilebytes]

@keithbraafladt @TheTechInteract Glad your trying it! The depth doesn’t really matter for culture viability or growth. Use whatever shape you want! We often use wider containers just because that gives a larger surface area for a given volume of liquid, meaning a larger piece of biomaterial will form.

[Anja Scholze @biophilebytes]

Guides about how to do #MakingwithMicrobes at home are now posted on the new @TheTechInteract at Home webpage! https://t.co/a0DhiAbK9o Excited to have them in both English and Spanish! #biodesign #biotinkering #kombuchaleather #BiotinkeringLab

[Biodesign Challenge @Biodesigned]

Help spread the wonder of #biodesign to new audiences + classrooms around the world!

Our new book explores #sustainability, #circularity, #biotech, #bioethics, #bioart + more

Please support our #Kickstarter (pledges in the next 18 hours get a discount!)

Sharing again but with higher voltage—rehydrated algae string is conducive!! Last image is before it was soaked over night and tested w/ a 9v battery. How might we program biomaterial circuitry into woven garments that trigger circuits when wet? @TheTechInteract @biophilebytes

[Anja Scholze @biophilebytes]

Love any opportunity to hang out with this inspiring crew! #biomaking

[Callie Chappell @eco_genome]

Amazing opportunity to discuss in the future (and present) of ✨biomaking education✨ at #AERA21 with @JusticeToshiba, @ALStrawhacker + many incredible others. Such an honor to present with @CorinneTakara on behalf of @biojamcamp about centering #culture & #justice in #biomaking

[Anja Scholze @biophilebytes]

@eco_genome @JusticeToshiba @ALStrawhacker @CorinneTakara @biojamcamp @allyquot @Aminobiolab @biobitsproject @genspacenyc @BUGSSlab @KurmanMelissa @TheTechInteract Callie - this is amazing!! ❤️ You are so talented!

@CorinneTakara @exploratorium @Xinampa_Bio @bioCURIOUSlab @IshyMaria @TheTechInteract Reminds me - I have some sleeves of 10cm Petri dishes at my house for you if, you want them!
