Hello, Twitter! Meet @WrightState University’s #iGEM team! 🧪 Our project, “Produce to Reduce”, focuses on the de novo production of alpha-terpineol, a natural plant product in #ecoli . 🌟 Check out our @iGEM promotional video to learn more!

We are only a few days away from the 2023 iGEM Grand Jamboree! 😱🥳 In this #SynbioSaturdays post we wanted to share the new additions and what to expect from this years iGEM Jamboree. We can wait to see all the other teams there!🫶

#SynbioSaturdays iykyk😉 And if you don’t know… here is a recap🤗: every Saturday we share a post under the the hashtag #SynbioSaturdays to help spread fun educational content related to synthetic biology! This week we have 3 fun facts about the synthetic biology industry.

As #iGEM deadlines are coming and passing, we want to take this #SynbioSaturdays to remind everyone to focus on what you are able to do! 🫶

Happy #SynbioSaturdays! This week we have a fun fact for you. Our interdisciplinary team is made up of students from 4 different schools of education at Wright State University! 📚🎓

iGEM Wright State 💜’s biosensors! Biosensors are widely used across many scientific fields. Our iGEM team utilizes them in our current Deconta-Mn-ate project on water quality! If you want to learn more about their many benefits, this #SynbioSaturdays post is perfect for you!😁

In this #SynbioSaturdays post we are piggybacking off of last weeks segment on riboswitches!🤗 Learn more about potential utilizations methods with an example from our Wright State-OH Deconta-Mn-ate project.
