Happy to announce the line-up for the 2024 Wellcome Trust Synthetic Biology for Health and Sustainability Conference in Cambridge, UK on 21–23 October. …erences.wellcomeconnectingscience.org/event/syntheti… | What an exciting line-up. Hope you can join us!
With thanks to the marvellous Magdalena Bak-Meier @maketimecountuk for sharing her wisdom, coaching insights and self improvement strategies with this fabulously talented group of #FutureLeaders
Congratulations to Dr Annalise Zouein for successfully defending her PhD today on DNA and RNA based control of mammalian gene expression. Anna was supervised by the brilliant @ceronifranci and was one of Imperial’s first @BioDesignEngCDT students. Very proud of her!
What a great week spent on retreat with our @BioDesignEngCDT students. What an inspiring group of talented individuals. So special gathering them all together.
Great news for the @IC_CSynBio community @imperialcollege with involvement in 4 of the recently announced Mission Hubs in Engineering Biology. Looking forward to working with @LedesmaAmaro on the microbial food hub. imperial.ac.uk/news/251436/uk…
Very pleased to see two of our papers come out today. First, Alicia's work on the use of light-up fluorescent RNA aptamers in synthetic biology, a collaboration with @LedesmaAmaro in @IC_CSynBio :
Congratulations to Francesca Smith, who has posted her article "Strong sequence dependence in RNA/DNA hybrid strand displacement kinetics". biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Some exciting news - we're looking for a postdoc with experience in experimental chemistry/molecular biology/DNA nanotechnology to work on novel mechanisms for molecular templating in synthetic systems. We are looking to emulate the most important class of process in nature.
Full details of the post can be found here: imperial.ac.uk/jobs/descripti…. @IC_CSynBio @ImperialBioeng
We have a fully funded 2023 entry CDT studentship available: MRes at @IC_CSynbBio followed by 3yr PhD at @UoMMIB with @Micklefield_Lab Engineering microbial cell factories for production of improved anti-infectives. Info here imperial.ac.uk/synthetic-biol… Deadline Monday 17th July!
Exciting synbio seminar tomorrow! 🧬🧬🧬 Enoch Yeung (UCSB) on data-driven approaches to controlling non-model microbes - come join us! 12 pm (BST) In-person (SAF122) or online (register 👇 for the link) Everyone around the globe welcome! eventbrite.co.uk/e/ic-csynb-sem…
My main takeaway though is that she became a Tory, despite a grim early life in Liverpool, because Thatcher gave her family the right to buy their council flat. What would be the equivalent rationale for a young, upwardly mobile woman now? I can't think of anything.
👉 IC-CSynB seminar on 15 June (4pm) 👈 Join to listen Prof Tom Brown (Oxford) on his pioneering work on artificially functionalised nucleic acids! 🧬 Hybrid delivery - RSM 2.28, South Kensington, or register here for online access: shorturl.at/arC19 Everyone welcome!

Very pleased to see two of our papers come out today. First, Alicia's work on the use of light-up fluorescent RNA aptamers in synthetic biology, a collaboration with @LedesmaAmaro in @IC_CSynBio :
I am especially pleased that the first #CRISPR therapy helps patients with sickle cell disease, a disease that has long been neglected by the medical establishment. This is a win for medicine and for health equity. (2/3)
Congratulations to Francesca Smith, who has posted her article "Strong sequence dependence in RNA/DNA hybrid strand displacement kinetics". biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Ben's elegant work on techniques for analysing minimal models of polymerisation processes has been published: pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/articl…
Francesca and @WooliBae have submitted work on a mechanism that allows for much faster 4-way DNA strand displacement: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. This improvement makes 4-way strand displacement much more competitive with conventional 3-way motifs.
Javi has built a synthetic DNA-based system that implements molecular templating biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. Molecular templating is responsible for all chemical complexity in biology, but we are currently unable to exploit it in synthetic contexts.
Rakesh has built the first synthetic system that uses kinetic proofreading to enhance discrimination during recognition: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Kinetic proofreading, wherein fuel is consumed to enhance specificity, is ubiquitous in biology but hitherto unexploited ex vivo.
With David Wolpert, I've looked at the minimal costs of computation when the computing device breaks up a complex calculation into small, repetitive steps. We illustrate these ideas s type of computer called a deterministic finite automation. arxiv.org/abs/2208.06895
Been quiet on here recently, but we've got a whole load of exciting papers out under review.
Some exciting news - we're looking for a postdoc with experience in experimental chemistry/molecular biology/DNA nanotechnology to work on novel mechanisms for molecular templating in synthetic systems. We are looking to emulate the most important class of process in nature.
Full details of the post can be found here: imperial.ac.uk/jobs/descripti…. @IC_CSynBio @ImperialBioeng
Odesa’s main Orthodox cathedral. Established in 1794, destroyed by Stalin in 1936, rebuilt under an independent Ukraine and destroyed again by Putin in 2023. One of several historical parts of central Odesa, a UNESCO world heritage site, hit by Russian missiles strikes today.
