Re-introducing the newest small and mighty kid on the block (with the right link I hope) journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb… - fantastic collaboration with XJ Yu CBRB Imperial Department of Infectious Disease David Holden and @jay_salsa x.com/thurstonlab/st…

Hello from Atlanta! 🇺🇸 I’ll be presenting a poster on the secretion of proteins by Salmonella as part of my PhD with Tom Ellis Teresa Thurston 🧫 Come chat with me tomorrow afternoon! #SEED2024

The 2nd poster session at #SEED2024 is starting and we've got 3 posters from my group. Stacey has a combinatorial method to yeast protein secretion, Ally is engineering protein secretion from tumor-targeting bacteria, and Tom is using pooled-seq & ML to test burden in plasmids.

Another great poster session at #SEED2024 - proud of Ally, Stacey and Tom for chatting about their work for well over an hour to many interested people.

Good news if you can't attend #SEED2024 and want to see some of the latest #synbio work from us. The amazing project by @FankangMeng on yeast multicellularity tools - MARS, SATURN & JUPITER - is now up as a preprint on BioRixv 🪐biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I had a great time presenting a poster at #SEED2024 this afternoon. Thanks to everyone who stopped to chat with me about Salmonella Synthetic Biology and Bacteria-based Therapeutics! A special thanks to Biochemical Society for the travel grant that supported this trip!

Celebrating Prof David Holden's "profound impact" on #microbiology at Imperial and beyond. 🎉 Imperial Department of Infectious Disease's Prof Ramesh Wigneshweraraj (Ramesh Wigneshweraraj) pays tribute to Prof Holden, who retired as Regius Professor of Infectious Disease this summer. blogs.imperial.ac.uk/imperial-medic…

Been a brilliant year for our lab - wonderful to share a merry afternoon in a warm London pub with this great bunch 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄

Happy new year! Our January issue covers academic bullying (Morteza Mahmoudi, PhD), mammalian cell programming, mRNA cell engineering (NanoMB Colin Pouton), materials for macrophage activity (Erika Moore Shreya Raghavan), nucleic acid delivery (Tom Ellis), mangrove soil engineering

The March issue is live nature.com/nbt/volumes/43… On our cover, Walker et al. engineer bacteria to synthesize a melanin-producing enzyme, allowing them to grow a black material that can substitute for leather in fashion items go.nature.com/4aDxMCR
