Great to drop by Cambridge this afternoon to see Mateo Sanchez Lopez who’s thriving in his Wellcome fellow position at the Dept of Chemistry. We miss his wisdom, humour and expertise in our lab. Cambridge is lucky to have him!

Last chance today to register to join what is bound to be a great pre-xmas SynBio conference in beautiful Ghent, Belgium. Science, engineering, DNA, cells, chocolate, beer and waffles... 😋

Looking for a PhD studentship in synthetic organic chemistry or chemical catalysis? Join us at Cambridge Chemistry! We have two fully funded* PhD positions (starting Oct 2025; *home fees). See the link for details: ch.cam.ac.uk/job/48955

New review paper on Engineered Living Materials #ELMs from Koray Malcı and other NextSkinsELMs members from my group. Some great diagrams in this one...

We are delighted that Professor Jonathan NItschke has been recognised by the RSC MASC interest group by this prestigious award.

We have a great program across many disciplines, including #proteinengineering, #directedevolution, #machinelearning, #biocatalysis, #enzymes, and much more.

Could one envision a synthetic receptor technology that is fully programmable, able to detect diverse extracellular antigens – both soluble and cell-attached – and convert that recognition into a wide range of intracellular responses, from transgene expression and real-time

We have an open professorship in #synbio / biological engineering in Heidelberg! jobs.zeit.de/jobs/full-prof… Check it out!

Really proud of this work by Jae Kennemur and Yueming Long. #Enzymes rock, with a little help from #directedevolution to do #chemistry not known in nature (and not easily done by humans).

Another exciting milestone in biocatalysis with nonheme enzymes! We have developed the first enzymatic system for copper-catalyzed radical C(sp³)–N coupling: science.org/doi/full/10.11…, which also represents the first demonstration of employing pterin-dependent nonheme enzymes in
