It was great to meet the LSC Living Therapeutic Materials community this week! Amazing people and inspiring science 🦠

Sharing some of my favourite #sketchnotes from LSC Living Therapeutic Materials! Cécile M. Bidan's talk on #biofilm structure/properties was a joy to draw (such cool images) and Karine Glinel's talk on #materials to control bacterial and stem cells was super smooth

Beautiful talk from Zack Abbott ZBiotics about making the first genetically engineered probiotic to prevent hangovers, how become an entrepreneur and responsible development of GMO products for intended for release into the world!

So much to learn from on the 2nd day of our Summer School! Talks from Shrikrishnan Sankaran Sara Trujillo, Sam Pearson, Karine Glinel, Cécile M. Bidan & CCBio UK covering bacterial engineering, encapsulation materials, biofilm architectures, biosafety considerations and tech transfer as a startup!

It was a very inspiring first day at our LSC Living Therapeutic Materials Summer School with talks from Tae Seok Moon Alex Rodrigo and Anton Kan on smart bacterial engineering, living biointerfaces and 3D printing living materials, a lively poster session and tasty barbecue dinner 🤤

We've got an exciting program ahead for our Summer School on Living therapeutic materials over the next 3 days at the beautiful European Academy Otzenhausen! - lsclifemat.de/events/
@moon_Synth Alex Rodrigo Cécile M. Bidan ZBiotics Shrikrishnan Sankaran Sara Trujillo and more!

A happy update..Defended my PhD thesis yesterday!
A huge shout out to my family, friends, mentors, and well-wishers!
Grateful!

Congratulations Shardul! 🎉 Your work in creating safe and secure engineered living materials laid the foundation on which our consortium has been growing [🦠🦠🦠]

Very excited to attend and present our LSC Living Therapeutic Materials collaborative research at the #SEED2023 conference in LA this week. Thanks to American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) for the Foundation Grant and Travel support. Please visit my poster 35C to know about our exciting work on Living Therapeutic Materials!!!!

Having fun at our Universität Saarland open day stall showing our LSC Living Therapeutic Materials work on therapeutic probiotic hydrogels. We've got probiotic yogurt, a 'bio'electronic circuit, agar art, gel experiments and immune cells! Curious yet? Come over and have a look

We reprogrammed some bacteria, stuck them in a gel and shone light. YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED NEXT!
