Had an amazing time at #ASBEVII in Brno! Honored to present my PhD work one last time. A couple of intense days filled with inspiring talks, connecting with fellow SynBio geeks, and fun stargazing/party evenings at the beautiful Brno Observatory! @EFBiotechnology @CSB_UGent

Great experience presenting our recent biosensor work at the Brno Observatory 🇨🇿at #ASBE7 @EFBiotechnology @CSB_UGent @FbwUGent. Thank you for the opportunity to present, the already many interesting discussions (and the awesome Voyager experience 🌌)

Excited to share our latest publication! Our new review dives deep into one of my favorite topics —LysR-type transcriptional regulators— the largest family of bacterial transcription factors, and their use in novel transcriptional biosensors. #Synbio #Biosensors #LTTRs

Last week, our own @Wouter_DM obtained his PhD in Bioscience Engineering, titled 'Standardization and expansion of microbial cell sensors: harnessing the power of LysR-type transcriptional regulators'. Congrats!! Very happy he will stay for a bit longer in our research group🤓

@Wouter_DM @EFBiotechnology Thanks! Having a chat would be nice. Am writing a paper on open-endedness and quality-diversity in synbio and biosensors might be potential applications :-)

Last week, I had the opportunity to join the #ASBEVI conference in Edinburgh. It has been a joy connecting with fellow #synbio researchers and getting inspired by the amazing speakers! Thanks @EFBiotechnology for the organisation and the chance to present my work!

@Wouter_DM @EFBiotechnology Do you measure a single property of your biosensors (i.e. fitness) or do you have a complexer phenotypic characterization (whether it can detect different molecules)?

@Michielstock @EFBiotechnology Hey @Michielstock, we look at vitality, functionality, response curves and specificity of the regulators we use, mainly via fluorescence measurements. So the regulators we take for biosensor construction, are regulating a fluorescent protein in our biosensor platform.

Me flash-presenting @#ASBEVI about my New-to-Nature Biosensors postdoc project @FWOVlaanderen and giving a nod to all my other colleagues @CSB_UGent @FbwUGent. Lots of biosensor projects to explore here❤️! We should organize a biosensor conference together!
