An interesting 2-years Postdoctoral position on sea ice biogeochemistry modelling is opened at the Norwegian Polar Institute, in Tromsø, Norway. Pedro Duarte Sebastien Moreau Philipp Assmy Karley Campbell breathearctic jobbnorge.no/en/available-j…

Broad-host-range #synbio requires standardized genetic devices, but also a new understanding of how species-specific #microbe physiology affects performance. Please check out and RT our preprint on the subject #biotech #biodesign Dennis Tin Chat Chan Geoff Baldwin doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…

My preprint on my first PhD study is out! Ever wondered if we could predict the bacterial chassis/host-effect? Find out below! Hans Bernstein Geoff Baldwin doi.org/10.1101/2023.0… #syntheticbiology #igem #biotechnology #geneticengineering #biotech

Why does Coca-Cola sponsor research on obesity? Why did BP introduce the personal carbon footprint calculator? In our new working paper, we offer an explanation: emphasizing individual action shifts whom people hold responsible for solving the problem. osf.io/z2vwb/

Just a check in with y'all to remind you that Tromsø is a nice place to study and spend time thinking about microbiology in the mountains 😁 #tromsø UiT Norges arktiske universitet

Do you need to annotate a genome, metagenome, or metatranscriptome fast at scale? Take a look at MetaCerberus for functional annotation (KOs, COGs, CAZy, PHROGs, VOGs etc). All HMM based. #rawlab #teamraw Paper: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Code: github.com/raw-lab/MetaCe…

New Algorithm! Do you clone a lot of plasmids? Are you tired of aligning plasmid maps to sequencing data, one by one? Introducing Context Aware AutoAlign!  Automated sequence alignments & model predictions for when cloning many protein expression plasmids. denovodna.com/software/conte…

Y'aaall my first publication as 1st-author just got published😭🥳Its been a labor of love. Do the terms chassis-effect and genetic circuit buzz your buzzer? Then my paper is for you! #synbio #biodesign #biotech Geoff Baldwin Hans Bernstein BioDesign Research spj.science.org/doi/10.34133/b…

Very proud of Dennis Tin Chat Chan ! His 1st, 1st author paper is fantastic! Thanks for helping us push the boundaries of broad-host-range #synbio from this unique #genome vs physiology perspective! BioDesign Research Geoff Baldwin UiT Norges arktiske universitet #biotech #microbes spj.science.org/doi/10.34133/b…

Expanding synthetic biology: our study highlights the "chassis effect" in genetic circuits across bacterial hosts. Physiology, not just genetics, drives device performance. 🔬🧬 #SyntheticBiology Details: spj.science.org/doi/10.34133/b…

Ever Wondered about engineering synthetic microbial communities?🦠That's got us intrigued! And so does the new paper from RodrigoLedesma-Amaro. They've developed tools to create co-cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for enhanced biomanufacturing. Thrilling! nature.com/articles/s4156…

New preprint by amazing PhD student Dennis Tin Chat Chan "Core" genes that control growth physiology shape the "engineer- ability" over different bacteria WRT synthetic gene circuits. Not "unique/accessory" genes & debuts a new Synbio toolkit for Stutzerimonas! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

My third preprint is out! The #synbio community should start diversifying their use of host organisms as chassis! Hans Bernstein Geoff Baldwin #Biotech #Biotechnology biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Happy to announce my second 1st-author paper is out🥳 Pangenome + Transcriptome = Insight into the microbial chassis-effect Hans Bernstein ASM journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…

Thanks #isme19 had a blast catching up with old and new faces and getting inspired by new research
