Last night cooking whilst joining a Journal Club with #BuildACell. #WFH

For anyone who lives in Oxford and is feeling brave: the first UK vaccine trial is now recruiting, expected to begin within weeks covid19vaccinetrial.co.uk

Scientists have fabricated a deformable, hydrogel-based sensor directly onto a continuously inflating and deflating pig lung, demonstrating a new 3D printing method that estimates surface motion in real time. fcld.ly/jp2sjs3 Science Advances

I remember being sceptical about homologous recombination at the begining of my PhD and now it's the main form of cloning technique I use 😂

Dr. Michael D. L. Johnson Okay, one more that sums up a LOT of labwork. Like, a lot. Oh, memory:

This is our new review. It's open access, check it out! Dr Denis Hartmann Jefferson Smith Razia Chowdhry Oxford Chemistry

Today I'll be giving a Build-a-Cell seminar on my work turning networks of aqueous droplets into controllable synthetic tissues, along with projects I was involved in led by Vanessa R.Schild Florence Downs (5pm UK time) Hagan Bayley group Oxford Chemistry SynBio CDT #synbio

Juggling to some cheerful Irish music. Been a while since I've been to Ireland and was missing it so thought I'd bring the Irish vibes to my living room 😁

Had our group Winter Online Extravaganza yesterday! Lots of games and fun, which was well deserved after the year we've been through. Nice new group picture too 😁! Team Lonsdale 🥇 beat Team Franklin 🥈 and Team Hodgkin 🥉 in the big quiz 🥳🤓🏆

I made a magical potion in the lab today!! (it's just lipid, lysolipid and peg in water)

Great pleasure to share our work at The Hague. More to come! #syncell2022 Razia Chowdhry Michael Booth Hagan Bayley group

📢 4th Edition of Royal Society of Chemistry Nucleic Acids in Chemistry and Biology has now been released (Blackburn/Gait/Egli/Jon Watts) – The bible for scientists who work with nucleic acids Furthermore, I wrote the revamped chapter on DNA and RNA Sequencing! 🥳 rsc.li/3OyMtNa

Michael Booth and his team at UCL Chemistry have developed a method to turn gene expression on or off using multiple wavelengths of light. A promising technique to study complex cellular processes and advance #syntheticcell #research and #technology! More: syntheticcell.eu/2023/05/22/res…
