Meanwhile in Europe: the Impossible Burger is still 100% illegal. Thank you, anti-GMO people, for protecting us from sustainable, humane and delicious plant-based burgers. 🙃

GPL1RAs give temporary weight loss that all comes back in a year for most people. Can this be solved or will users be hooked for life? theguardian.com/society/2025/m…

Read the full preprint below 👇 If you're interested in the interface of bioengineering, DNA and virtual cell foundation models, and agentic reasoning, shoot me a note. We're hiring postdocs and ML researchers and starting some crazy new projects biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Today in Science Magazine we report the development of a laboratory-evolved CRISPR-associated transposase (evoCAST) that supports therapeutically relevant levels of RNA-programmable gene insertion in human cells, a collaboration with Sternberg Lab. 1/13 drive.google.com/file/d/1I-UbCR…

We are looking for an ambitious and talented research fellow (lecturer level) to work on an exciting new synthetic genomics project. The research fellow will be encouraged to develop independent research lines complementary to the main project. jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?…

Actually, it's only a novel hypothesis if the discovery comes from the hypothesé region of France. Otherwise, it's just a sparkling hypothesis .

“What is science?” I've always seen it as a fun question but not urgent Suddenly every AI shop on earth claims to have “automated science” - a wild claim that's easy to make when nobody knows what science is So we'd better figure it out soon because the stakes are getting high

It feels pretty obvious that the ‘south Africa genocide’ bug in Grok two weeks ago and Trump ambushing their President yesterday were linked. If politicians are ‘doping’ AIs with narratives they want to spread before meetings/ events then this is a very serious moment in AI.

Back to London for another get together our NextSkins project - this time for our halfway meeting. Wonderful to look back at all the achievements and celebrate these and plan for getting our innovations to work together over the next few years. Exciting ideas!

I'm offering free copies of the Asimov Press book to iGEM students, or college students enrolled in biotechnology courses, in the U.S. If you'd like copies for your team/class, DM me. I'll send out 1 book per student & 1 DNA capsule per shipment. While (limited) supplies last.
