[Colossal Biosciences® @colossal]

Our Woolly Mammoth team has achieved a global-first iPSC breakthrough! 🏆

iPSC cells represent a single cell source that can propagate indefinitely and elephant iPSCs (the most elusive iPSCs to date) are now obtainable!

@svheeringen @svheeringen Our bad if we missed some more recent papers! If you DM me some more references, we will be sure to qualify our statements more in review!

Great to see @geochurch becoming a developmental biologist (it's never too late)

Lattice Automation is #hiring! We are looking for a #productmanager to be part of a team focused on delivering cutting edge #software solutions: https://t.co/knegZcQI52

[CIDAR Lab @cidar_lab]

Our group (led by Prof. @DouglasDensmore) is #hiring a Research Systems Engineer II to maintain and develop computational tools and manage IT systems for #microfluidics, lab #automation, and #synbio. Check out the post here: https://t.co/Csu903hHU0

[Patrick Hsu @pdhsu]

Paul Nurse, who won a Nobel for his work on the cell cycle, calls for more daring theory in biology and criticizes current trends in large scale data generation. We probably need to reimagine the Discussion section of papers! https://t.co/R9XhI1Iy76

[Aditya Kunjapur @kunjapur]

In work led by @StorkDevon & in collaboration between @fleshball & @geochurch, we report site-specific incorporation of a variety of non-standard amino acids in Bacillus subtilis for several purposes including interrogation of bacterial cytokinesis. Now out in @NatureComms (1/2)

[The New York Times @nytimes]

With $15 million in private funding, a new company called Colossal is trying to edit elephant DNA to genetically resurrect the woolly mammoth, thousands of years after it went extinct. https://t.co/LKVWpcfzqe
