Super thrilled to share our new publication led by @ben_a_adler “Multicopy suppressor screens reveal convergent evolution of single-gene lysis proteins” on single strand RNA Fiersviridae #phages https://t.co/tQpDl7RNHQ
Excited to share our newest paper in Nature Biotech on robotic AI-enabled microbial culturomics! Congrats to @YimingHuang8, @raviusheth and all coauthors. 1/4 https://t.co/97QKkSEmkv
I’m excited to introduce our Retro-Cascorder, out today in @Nature! This molecular device logs barcoded receipts of gene expression in a temporal genomic ledger. Sequence the ledger --> recover the history of gene expression. https://t.co/aGkyUbRBJW
🚨Our lab has MULTIPLE funded postdoctoral positions open for different microbiome projects ranging from Cancer, Rare Earth Elements, and Anti-mold applications!! We build & use cool tech for microbiomes.🛠️🧬🦠 DM or email me at [email protected] to apply. Pls RT
Our paper on single-cell genomic sequencing of the human gut microbiome is now published in Science! Congrats to all of the amazing authors that I am proud to work with: @zheng_wenshan@ejalm@peterjameslu@_e_evans@cdaili@animalkewls and David Weitz

In @ScienceMagazine we describe how a CRISPR-based bacterial recording system (Record-seq) captures signatures of diet, disease, and microbial interactions within the intestine – helping us understand how diet, disease, and the microbiota shape health. 1/12
My experiences in Dr. Ting Lu's lab documented in the letter attached.
It's not about him. I've cared about him enough during those 18 months of my life. It's about the students.

Today seems like a good day to announce some improvements we've had in the works:
1. We promised lower prices as our sequencing volume increased, and thanks to our wonderful customers, as of right now we are dropping our price from $25 to $15/sample! (1/6)
Therapeutic mRNA for heart failure?!
Our own Joel Rurik (@DevBioAcademic) teamed up with @WeissmanLab to make CAR T cells entirely in the body to treat heart disease.
Published today on the cover of Science!

Year end buzzer-beater preprint! We present a new readout method for DNA strand displacement reactions using @nanopore arrays: A nanopore interface for high bandwidth DNA computing https://t.co/b6gRslEMCJ
Best way to ring in the new year! @erika_alden_d and I are excited to share our story on high-throughput continuous evolution, available now in @naturemethods. We've added a ton to the story since the preprint, and hope you'll check it out! thread 1/n... https://t.co/e76mfVIlNN
"Towards the biogeography of prokaryotic genes" is finally out at @Nature
We wanted to know what genes are out there and how they are distributed around the world
A 🧵 on the main findings

Excited to share my first paper in @doudna_lab where Ben Rubin @Dr__Diamond of @BanfieldLab & I co-led development of a framework for targeted genome editing in microbial communities https://t.co/MhBWcwKpiF
Happy to share our latest paper in Nature Materials on engineered living materials (ELMs). Big shout out to Damen Schaak & the @ecovative team for the core fungal tech and @Geneticdesigner & his MIT team for this super fun collab!
