Ready for summer? :) Congrats to the class of 2024! Well done!

New paper out in Imaging Neuroscience! Happy to publish in a new journal focused on fair and open publishing policies. This started as one of my very first PhD projects -- many thanks to Tyler Perrachione, Barbara Shinn-Cunningham, and Dr. Abigail Noyce for sticking with it!

Mary Dunlop was selected as the recipient of the 2024 College of Engineering Faculty Service Award by the College Executive Committee. Congrats Mary!

Thank you Julian Grünewald and Holly for the invitation to share our work in gene editing delivery methods at ASGCT 2024. Excited to contribute towards advancing gene editing therapies! 🧬

To all SynBioBeta attendees today! make sure to clear some time for this exciting panel featuring BU's Rabia Tugce Yazicigil. DAMPs had the pleasure of working with Rabia and her team. This panel will definitely be one you don't want to miss! It starts at 2:45 PM PST #synbiobeta

Congrats Vicky Yao Qiliang Vincent Lai Ruth Dannenfelser ! I enjoyed so much working with you on this cool paper!

Thrilled to announce that Dr. Adam Sanford successfully and brilliantly defended his PhD dissertation today! Adam may hold the (enviable or unenviable?) distinction of having made the most yeast strains in Khalil lab history over the course of his PhD 🍾🥳

DAMP's Douglas Densmore and BU Professor Rabia Yazicigil Kirby are representing at SynBioBeta this week! Pictured are Michael Clear from Schmidt Sciences, Andrew from Capra Biosciences (who we work closely with on eVOLVERs), and Alex from MITRE

Mentors included students from BU Engineering, who helped these students flesh out synthetic #biology solutions to real-world problems. Among the products they pitched: crops modified to survive unseasonable cold snaps and marine bacteria engineered to clean up oil spills.

Seniors from a local high school competed in an annual #SharkTank -like event at BU, with help from undergrad and grad student mentors. The students pitched products to a panel of BU faculty and affiliates who acted as skeptical investors.

In today's joint Center for Systems Neuroscience, Boston University and BU_Neurophotonics seminar, Dr. Itamar Kahn from Columbia U.'s Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute Institute discussed 'Individual Variability in the Functional Connectivity Architecture of the Mouse Brain.' Thanks Prof. Anna Devor for hosting!

Huge congratulations to our incredible student Anna-Maria Marinescu (Senior in Biology) for receiving the Undergraduate Research Award in Neurobiology this year!

CTO, Center Director, Professor, and Leader––Dr. Thomas Bifano continuously elevates the places and people around him. Understandably, his impact on the has earned him Boston University's Innovator of the Year award!
