I sat down for a break during my morning walk at #ICE2024Kyoto and this guy started croaking at me. How appropriate.
Great lineup of speakers for #ICBE25. Students and postdocs can still submit abstracts to be a part of it. aiche.org/sbe/conference…

We are excited to finally publish the unprecedented biosynthetic origins of enediyne natural products: iodinated polyynes! This transformative discovery is a huge milestone for these clinical antitumor antibiotics. @Kalkreuter @guichun98 @nchembio nature.com/articles/s4158…
AmberBio is hiring: amber.bio/careers. I highly recommend looking into it if you want to work at a fast-moving startup with a creative and impactful technology. @themicrobeguy
Looking for a postdoc? We are currently hiring plant synthetic biologist to work on an exciting and collaborative DoE project.
Great work by Tepper, Maselko, et al. Fish that break down methylmercury!

Trick or treaters aren't letting me leave the building to go teach.
Minnesota is dressing up like Christmas for Halloween. I think I have seen this movie.
Thanks @themicrobeguy for a great seminar on engineered trans-splicing. Great our alumni crushing it @umncbs
Putting this on the summer reading list. Looks exciting Basem.

At high ratios of male-to-female, (i.e., ratios that are expected for many mosquito biocontrol approaches), the females are pestered to the point where they no longer blood-feed, improving the performance of the biocontrol in an interesting and unexpected way!

If you cannot explain something in simple terms, you don't understand it.

I especially liked his blog on mouse models [nikomccarty.com/everything-wro…]. Making model organisms more predictive of the thing they are supposed to be modeling is a worthwhile goal of near-future Synthetic Biology (Engineering Biology?, what are we saying now?).

See Szu-Yi Campbell (nee Hsu)'s work on applying Design of Experiments to metabolic pathway engineering in Metabolic Engineering. Interesting and unexpected impact on colony morphology (Jihaeng Li) and simulations to extend results (Adam Sychla) authors.elsevier.com/a/1gilT3vNLuLd…
