Attending the 2024 @iGEM Grand Jamboree and seeing so many groundbreaking ideas was unforgettable! I’m incredibly proud of my team for their hard work 🎉 Winning the Grand Prize is the ultimate reward. It has been an honor to supervise such a passionate group of students.

I'm incredibly proud of my @iGEM team, who won the Grand Prize along with 4 special prizes & 2 additional nominations! This Grand Prize is a perfect conclusion and ending to my time in Marburg, where I've had the honor of being the @igemmarburg instructor for the past 6 years.

It was an amazing experience to attend the Grand Jamboree and see all the incredible ideas! We are thrilled to have won the Grand Prize. We would like to thank all the sponsors, supervisors, PIs and supporters who made this possible. Words cannot express our gratitude! @iGEM

Excited to share my first corresponding & co-first author paper with @clemens_bohm! We developed cell-free extracts from chloroplasts of various plant species for rapid prototyping, accelerating #plantSynBio in chloroplasts. 🌿 Check it out! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

So very happy to share our preprint for the main work of both our PhDs ! Check out Rene's thread to learn about the tools we developed for #chloroplast engineering and how we use them to test a photorespiratory bypass in #Chlamydomonas !!

Very excited to share the preprint of a big chapter of my PhD, where I am corresponding & shared first author (together with @gitanguy) about advancing #chloroplast #synbio through high-throughput plastome engineering of #Chlamydomonas: Below in a 🧵: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very excited to share my first corresponding & shared first author preprint (together with @clemens_bohm) about developing cell-free extracts from chloroplasts of different plant species for rapid prototyping to accelerate #plantsynbio in the chloroplast: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Happy to see our Nanopore sequencing workflow for construct validation published. Congratulations @adanramirezro, @CedKB and the one and only Tania pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… Big thanks @MPDL for funding Open Access. We also pulled together a protocol doi.org/10.48550/arXiv…

Inspired by our first paper about synthetic sRNAs we looked into predicting optimal seed sequences for sRNAs. The story is finally out doi.org/10.1093/bioinf…. Fruitful collaboration with @BorkBerghoff. First purely computational paper of the lab and first paper of @CedKB!

Excited to share our first #preprint with #synthetic yeast. Great collaboration with @LenaHochrein showing for the first time that L-SCRaMbLE is active on chromosome scale! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… work by talented students @TimonLindeboom @Maria_San_07 @CedKB @adanramirezro

We can not believe it! We have won the grand prize of the #iGEM2021 competition! Addionally we have won the track prize and 9 addional special prizes! We are so happy and would like to thank again everyone who helped us on the way of our project!🌿🌿🎉🎉 #woodgang #Plantsynbio

GUYS! WE MADE IT! We are now officially in the Overgrads FINALS! 🥳🥳🥳We are so excited for this weekend! Hopefully we can see a lot of people in Paris! Thank You to everyone who supported us on our journey

@TTEchironex @Opentrons_ It's really amazing. Here's a little pixelart protocol we created last year to try out the move to function.

Can I get a thumbs up for cool robots? First test protocol of the @Opentrons_ OT-2!! This thing is so cool

WE DID IT!!!!
