Today the TVPLab reached a higher peak! We have (virtually) climbed Boosaule Montes in Jupiter's moon Io - an amazing team effort aimed to raise funds for @4C_PPE! Proud of all of us and this cause, thank you! #VCC #mentalhealthawarenessweek University of Cambridge Sport Cambridge University @MRL_Cam

#StrigaSmartSorghum Enzyme Biomanufacturing Masterclass underway, with Beneficial.Bio Kenyatta University #ExperienceKU and ISAAA_AfriCenter drawing participants from Kenya and Ethiopia.

Our Enzyme Manufacturing Masterclass kicked off here Kenyatta University #ExperienceKU yesterday, with 26 participants from across Kenya & Ethiopia. Many thanks also to our partners Ebti &@afri_isaaa for making this happen! Covering DNA assembly, #synbio toolkits, protein expression & more

Our team Jenny Molloy & Rita Dias are in Kenya, where we are proud partners with #StrigaSmartSorghum for Africa. Tackling barriers to research on improving climate-resilient crops with gene editing, through local manufacturing of #opensource reagents & #openhardware

A warm return welcome from Ebti Technology Institute in Addis Ababa! Lots of discussion on the bioeconomy, ongoing & potential collaborations, #synbio & #CRISPR training for 2024. Huge thanks to our hosts Kassahun Tesfaye & Yordanos Ali

We are inviting applications for a Research Assistant position to support the Prof Vidal-Puig group (TVPLab) scientific programme, based at the Wellcome Trust-MRC Institute of Metabolic Science, and the Victor Phillip Heart and Lu…lnkd.in/eZNrcEZv lnkd.in/e7RfRpg9

At the end of Aug, the Benbio team was at ABBC Symposium in Nairobi 🇰🇪! Lots of networking and important lessons on #scicomm, #GM and #biotech 🔬🧬 for sustainable agriculture in East Africa. Even had a Sorghum-based Festival! Cheers🍻ISAAA_AfriCenter #ABBC2023 #StrigaSmartSorghum

Thank you Kenyan scientists for accepting our invitation to discuss cutting-edge approaches to sustainable biomanufacturing and the potential for bioinnovation and business in Kenya - our seminar at ihitkenya was a success and we learned a lot! #synbio #research #sustainability

Cheery smiles yesterday while exploring storage and delivery solutions at Johnsons Lab Logistics! Thanks to all the team for your fantastic hospitality! 🎄 ✨

We have been on the heels of this cereal killer for sometime. I would like to provide an update with this video. Enjoy! youtu.be/DCu37ss_aLA

🌍 Last month in Kenya with the minds behind the #StrigaSmartSorghum project! Between strategy sessions and visiting the future centre of excellence for #bioscience innovation (#AfriBIOHub), the mission advances to make a difference in #Africa 's agricultural landscape🌱🌾

African farmers are set to benefit from genome editing tech with #StrigaSmartSorghum!🌾 Hear directly from the partners on how this groundbreaking project will revolutionise farming, foster #innovation and enhance local research capabilities #AfriBIOHub 🌱 youtube.com/watch?utm_camp…

Great opportunity for a 3yr UK-Brazil/South Africa-LDC partnership. I don't have enough funding to apply for this funding (the irony) but if you can & you're looking for great metagenomics/synbio/biomanufacturing partners, I've got leads for you! royalsociety.org/grants/interna…

This is the biggest gathering of Open Science Hardware activists on the continent. This year's AfricaOSH Summit will focus on promoting the use of open science hardware in Africa. Apply here: bit.ly/AfricaOSH2024 Partners: lnkd.in/eDvhftkM

2 very successful days, 3 to go!

#EMM2024 done! :)

After an amazing #EMM2024 in Nairobi, we're very excited to bring the next set of workshops to Addis Ababa this July! Don't miss this opportunity to elevate your #research skills and network with peers - there are still a few spots left! See you there 🌟🧬#Biotech #CRISPR #Enzyme

Round 2, week 1! A very successful week already :D
