Nice work people! sets a new field on isoprenoids research☺️🥳

Engineered cells are finding their way into agriculture, living materials, consumer products and medicines. How do we design these cells and adapt regulatory rules to facilitate their safe and efficient use? #synbio #biotech rdcu.be/d8xLG

We are looking for a scientist with PhD degree OR at least 5 years job-related experience in #soil science, #earth sciences, #biology/#ecology, #environmental or #agricultural sciences, #spatial data processing or related fields. 👇 recruitment.jrc.ec.europa.eu/vacancy/1197

Some bacterial spores can survive temps of 420 °C. Plastics are extruded at ~300 °C. For this study, Bacillus spores were engineered to make lipase enzymes upon stimulation with xylose, and then embedded into plastic. When the spores are "activated," the plastic is destroyed.

Pigmentation in Sicilian blood oranges is driven by a cold-activated Copia-like retrotransposon insertion near the anthocyanin-activating MYB gene Ruby #FlavonoidFriday (details: lnk.tu-bs.de/4zY026)

Come and join our group for a 2-years position in the field of synthetic biology and biotechnology. Our group, Biochemical Engineering, at PLEN, University of Copenhagen (ku.dk) is led by @s_kampranis. The deadline for applying is: 31 of August, so hurry up😉

we are looking forward to meeting you ☺️📷The link for the application is here: employment.ku.dk/faculty/?show=…

The focus of this project is to establish a “non-canonical” isoprenoid metabolism in living cells. The incoming colleague will create cells (yeast) to synthesize alternative isoprenoid building blocks to produce non-canonical terpenoids.

Interested in #GPCRs? Join our group to develop yeast-based biosensors to recapitulate human taste and olfaction. Apply now! Deadline August 15th. employment.ku.dk/all-vacancies/…

What are the secret ingredients for a successful iGEM project? Synthesizing Synergies sat down with Srishti Singh, a member of the 2022 Grand Prize winning team of UCopenhagen, to get insights into her team's winning iGEM journey. Find our interview on the iGEM blog 🧵

Now the scientific community and it's practices become a card game 🎯😜😂. A cynical (but realistic ???) way to represent what is happening ?? 😮🥹🤔😵‍💫?nature.com/articles/d4158…

@ashleyruba_phd what about better contracts and less insecurity?

Please RT: I am hiring for a unique position of Research Fellow / Senior Researcher / Senior Postdoc! Join my #synbio lab @imperialcollege to coordinate and supervise research, apply for grants, write papers, and assist managing the team. ➡️ Apply now! lnkd.in/ehz4XUXJ

Stopping inflammation in mice, by blocking interleukin (IL-11) delays aging by 25%! what are the chances it can work in humans too? any small molecules that can block IL-11? here they used antibodies! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Are you interested in yeast and synthetic biology??? then we have the perfect spot for you😊. We are hiring a postdoc for a 2-years, to work with yeast, GPCR proteins and biosensors, here at @UCPH_Research. Contact us if you are interested! looking forward to meet you 🥳😊😃

We're looking for an enthusiastic experimentalist PhD student to join our interdisciplinary group interested in the ecology & evolution of microbial communities unil.ch/mitrilab. Apply tinyurl.com/mu5swnk8 before Aug 31! Bonus: Lausanne is a beautiful place to live!

A fully funded (3 year) PhD position is available in my group. The project will focus on analysing how synergistically interacting bacteria coevolve. Join my vibrant group at @UniOsnabrueck. Please RT Deadline: 28.07.2024 More information👇 shorturl.at/5ZP7R

@JLMart81 congratulations!!!!

The focus of this project is to establish yeast-based biosensors. The incoming postdoctoral scientists will create yeast cells utilizing GPCRs or engineered transcription factors. These biosensors will then be used to sense the presence of small molecules or magnetic fields.

if you are interested, you can apply here: Postdoc - Synthetic Biology, Biotechnology (ku.dk). Deadline for the applications will be the 15th of August, so plenty of time to get ready!!!!
