Newest paper from our lab lead by @Daniel_Nucifora. We show that the entire genome of A. laidlawii can be transferred directly into yeast by cell fusion. Cloning whole genomes in yeast is a key step toward building and engineering synthetic cells.

As a wetlab experiments guy, a lot of DL/ML/AI baffles me, so I'm learning a lot supervising @tdsone3 in his PhD to bring AI-based design to synthetic biology in Baker's yeast. His first output 'Yorzoi' is now on BioRxiv. Here are my thoughts on this... https://t.co/3SOICnVqFo

Are you eligible for the NSERC Postdoctoral Fellowships (PDF) program and interested in joining Karas lab? If yes, please send your CV to [email protected] Details & eligibility: https://t.co/cGgjY25XRM

[Tom Ellis @ProfTomEllis]

Online now @ Cell is the yeast multicellular engineering paper from @DrFankangMeng - the fruits of his productive PhD. He developed modular synthetic biology tools to bring multicellular behaviours to yeast - adhesion, juxtacrine signalling and more. https://t.co/6ZxfUAkNL5

What if crops could grow in poor soil, resist disease and carry more nutrients?

At #SchulichMedDent, @KarasLab is building synthetic plant genomes to make that future possible, with support from the U.K.’s @ARIA_research. https://t.co/MWelexeTIR
