Great new perspective on how different upcoming space missions drive different design scenarios for space synthetic biology and biomanufacturing led by two of our early career CUBES folk: Nils and Aaron Berliner among others. nature.com/articles/s4146…

So happy to give a rapid fire talk today and even happier to discuss my #biosensor work with só many interested people 🙏 (still welcome tomorrow at Poster 60 or in person the days after). The first day of #ME15 was a great one with non-stop interesting talks #singapore #synbio👍

I loved that Greg Stephanopoulos talked about Metabolic Engineering for Diagnostic purposes and personalized healthcare as one of the major new frontiers of our field. Any other Biosensor researchers out there triggered by this? I know I am 🧐 #ME15 #synbio #biosensors

Meet our new PhD student Kelley! #synbio #metabolicengineering #precisionfermentation #chitooligosaccharides

📢We are looking for a highly motivated researcher (either PhD student or postdoc) to work on this EU-funded project. I am aware summer is not the best time to recruit so I am hoping for some help from the Twittersphere to disseminate. I wish you all a great summer CMET

At the end of August, our colleagues Jasmine De Baets and @cara_deal attended the Swiss-UK Synbio conference in beautiful Lausanne, Switzerland! They had the opportunity to showcase their posters and Cara Deal also presented her research during a talk. #synbio #SwissUKSynBio

❗️New paper alert❗️ Congrats to all authors! Want to know more about CDP-tyvelose 2-epimerases and their potential in the design of new nucleotide production pathways? Read the full article in #ChemBioChem 👉doi.org/10.1002/cbic.2…

Teamwork makes the dream work! On the yearly teambuilding of our MEMO research group, we had the opportunity to taste some delicious MEMO-pie 😋🤓 Brains, stomach and team spirit fueled to conduct more amazing research! #metabolicengineering #logo #synbio #geneticcircuitry

Be considerate toward your microbial culture: give them time to grow before encouraging them to produce your biomolecule of interest. Congrats to Jasmine De Baets for creating a great overview of strategies to optimize this process!

For fundamental researchers and biosensor builders alike: learn everything you need about the vast and diverse world of LysR-type transcription factors from Wouter Demeester 's new review! Congrats to all! #syntheticbiology #transcriptionfactors #biosensors

Great experience presenting our recent biosensor work at the Brno Observatory 🇨🇿at #ASBE7 EFB Biotechnology Centre for Synthetic Biology Faculty of Bioscience Engineering UGent. Thank you for the opportunity to present, the already many interesting discussions (and the awesome Voyager experience 🌌)

#ASBE7 in Brno was an amazing experience! Stargazing paired with inspiring #synbio discussions and projects is a perfect combination. I loved presenting our biosensor work to the community, more coming soon 🚀🔬✨

📢 NEW PAPER ALERT 📢 New review paper out by Brecht De Paepe & Marjan De Mey in ACS Synthetic Biology! With the end of the year in sight, this review discusses lots of biosensor research opportunities for 2025! 🚀 Read the paper here 👇 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
