Day 2 of Viruses of Microbes Conference 2022 #vom2022 very excited!!

Are you interested in phage engineering? Come check out at poster in room 2! #VoM2022

I had so much fun presenting my poster today! Thank you to everyone who came by #VoM2022

Last day of #VoM2022. I had so much fun this week learning about other projects and connecting with other researchers in the field 👩🏻‍🔬

The circulating phageome can identify bacterial pathogens in sepsis and other infections. Read all about it in our new pre-print by Naomi Haddock, Layla Barkal, MD PhD, Sam Yang, Ami Bhatt, and Charles Chiu. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very excited to be sharing phage research paper from our lab! If you want to learn more about the alternative tail fiber S’ of phage P1 then check this out: doi.org/10.1016/j.jmb.…

Exciting new preprint from Eligo Bio and David Bikard David Bikard 🇫🇷 - In situ targeted mutagenesis of gut bacteria biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Plastic waste has economic and environmental impacts and we need new routes to reuse and recycle. Jo Sadler and Stephen Wallace discovered bacteria can be used to convert plastic into vanillin, a valuable chemical used in food and cosmetics edin.ac/352Uq86 #BioWeekScot22

Very excited to be sharing my first first-author paper that has just published in ACS Synthetic Bio today on phage tail engineering for targeting gut pathogens 🦠 pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh

Today's #shoutout to #womenInSTEM goes to Jidapha Fa-arun for her paper w/ the Wang Lab ACS Synthetic Bio showing tail-engineered #Phage P2 Enables delivery of #Antimicrobials into multiple gut pathogens. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Very happy to get another paper out of the lab in ACS Synthetic Bio. This time it’s phage P1 against Shigella flexneri! Thank you all the authors Mostowy Lab Vincenzo Torraca Sydney Miles Diego Oyarzún Huan, Russell and Baojun (not on Twitter) pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.102….

20 years ago, synthetic biology was just a pipe dream. It was hard to engineer biology and ship product. It's now getting easier. Here's a list of 10 products of synthetic biology...

Meet "Cheetah," an easy-to-use deep learning-based algorithm for single cell monitoring and control. From Elisa Pedone, Lucia Marucci, Thomas Gorochowski, Mario di Bernardo and colleagues BristolEngMaths Bristol BioDesign Institute  pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… #cybergenetics #toolkit #tbt

Sebas' paper has just been published in Nature Communications! We report a strategy for optimizing protein production in which induction is dynamically adjusted based on the current stress of the cells to avoid the appearance of "burnt-out" cells. nature.com/articles/s4146… More below👇🏼
