In our last published work we explore modularity in the bioproduction of flavours/fragrances: modular cloning, modular pathways and also modular synthetic microbial communities! #synbio #meteng Imperial College Centre for Synthetic Biology Imperial Bioengineering You can read this here👇🏼 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Interesting paper by Tom Ellis Rodrigo Ledesma-Amaro et al. ACS Synthetic Bio pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

I am super excited to share our latest work published in Nature Chemical Biology This is a story about synthetic microbial communities that helps us understand microbial interactions and construct better biofactories! #synbio #meteng Full paper: nature.com/articles/s4158… Summary below 👇🏼

📣 Job alert 📣 I have a 12 month post-doc position (with lots of international travel) available to test different model building methods for engineering biology. #postdocposition #synbio #engbiol Please retweet! Job ad 👇

Our last work is now out in Nature Microbiology! We developed a molecular toolkit to engineer microbial communities. It enables the control of population dynamics and demonstrated that synthetic communities improved the production of a food antioxidant 🍇 nature.com/articles/s4156…

OUT NOW 📣: A molecular toolkit of cross-feeding strains for engineering synthetic yeast communities 🍄🔄🍄 By Huadong Peng, Rodrigo Ledesma-Amaro & colleagues. Huadong Peng Rodrigo Ledesma-Amaro nature.com/articles/s4156…

⚗ Dr Rodrigo Rodrigo Ledesma-Amaro and his research group have built a toolkit to boost yeast’s ability to produce food, materials, and pharmaceuticals by engineering optimal behaviours 🔗imperial.ac.uk/news/251334/ne…

"Our findings, if replicated across further yeasts and metabolites, have the potential to significantly impact the way we understand and use microbial communities in #sustainable #bioproduction, from #food to #biofuels,” says Senior author Rodrigo Ledesma-Amaro: synbiobeta.com/read/synthetic…

📣Job Alert! 📣 5 days left to apply for our 3 year #postdoc role modelling strategies for metabolic engineering and flux control! Exciting interdisciplinary project with a great team at Warwick (John McCarthy, Fabrizio Alberti, Sarah Bennett)
