#genomeengineering — Public Fediverse posts

🚀🤖 Sure, let’s have computer scientists, who barely know #biology, whip up a brain like it’s a weekend coding project! Apparently, with just a sprinkle of genome magic and some strategic “guideposts” and “coordinates” (sounds just like Google Maps, right?), a brain is expected to pop out in no time. 🙄🧠

Gene editing — Dec 2025 🧬

Big moves beyond classic CRISPR:
• In vivo editing of human stem cells
• New Cas systems expand the toolbox
• RNA editing without guide RNAs
• Screens uncover drug-resistance pathways

📢#Engineering #plants for a changing climate📢

Given ongoing heatwaves, floods and other climate-change-related events @PLOSBiology's collection of commissioned Perspectives and Essays seems timely

It explores engineering strategies to help adapt plants to a changing climate & increase #CarbonCapture

Let us know what you think! @PLOSBiology welcomes related primary research

Today in #tucson it will be 114F/45C.

In related news, @PLOSBiology has published **Engineering plants for a changing climate**, that "explores engineering strategies to help us adapt plants to a changing climate, including breeding techniques, #GenomeEngineering , #SyntheticBiology and #microbiome engineering, with a focus on creating climate-resilient varieties and increasing the #CarbonCapture potential of croplands."

Hello everyone! 👋
It's time for an #introduction !

I'm currently a postdoc in the Department of Biochemistry #Cambridge.
Previously, I studied (PhD+postdoc) #mitochondria #RNA #translation at the MRC Mitochondrial Biology Unit #Cambridge

I use wet and dry lab methods #genetics #genomeengineering #biochemistry #structuralbiology #cryoEM to address unsolved biological mysteries 👀

Outside of the lab, you can find me baking, doing photography, ceramics, oil painting and/or taking care of plants.

🤔 Difficult #NewHere question: Are initial toots with many hashtags useful? Hm, for now, a quick Toot is easier than clarifying this 😉
