Are you attending @GARNetweets #ICAR2022 next week? EI Group Leader @nicolabiologist will be co-chairing the 'plant logic' session on Tuesday, while PhD researcher @SamWithamPhD will be describing how understanding gene regulatory networks can help improve crop traits. #synbio

U.K. rules on #geneediting are expected to be less strict than those for transgenic crops like this iron-rich wheat the @JohnInnesCentre is testing. ow.ly/WA7a50EWKak

“Open science and DIY biology can fix the technological gap we are facing in Africa.” So happy to see the @LabMboa quoted in this article. Bravo to @openbioeconomy @BeneficialBio for the collaborative work. Proud to push the @GOSHCommunity roadmap.

PHD Life: To give an insight into #PhDlife at EI, we’ve followed our latest student cohort as they learn and flourish. Now over halfway through, and with a host of achievements to their name - they show that a #PhD is most definitely worth it. @NRPBIODTP okt.to/iH3JGu

All of us at PurpleTomato are extremely proud of Zuzana, one of our co-founders, for being featured on the front page of @uniofeastanglia media last month! #ScienceOfFeeling #UEAEngagementAward buff.ly/2DhWMVP

We have designed and built a 2 litre bioreactor that will allow researchers to produce enzymes of their choice. We are in the final stages preparing the manual.
Thanks to @CambridgeDT
for helping us with troubleshooting. #lowcost #opensource #openbioreactor

Building local capacity is critical to overcoming the challenges of reagent access in resource limited contexts. At @hivebiolab in February, @openbioeconomy researchers trained a group of Ghanaian scientists to produce their own enzymes, an important skill for fighting #covid19.

It's another #Bioinformatics Thursday and happens to be the last day of the one month training course to train Ghanaian biologist in bioinformatics. Last week was super exciting with participants been introduced to basic #python and how they can use it as biologists.

By standardising how we share information regarding experimental growth conditions, including media and container properties, shaking...the MIEO standard developed by @JimbMeasuresUp will make experiments more reproducible!

More fantastic work by @SamWithamPhD and @harryakligoh developing the next generation of #biology workers.
It's #Bioinformatics Thursday and as usual we have our bioinformatics course today again. Last week participants were introduced to basic command lines in linux and how to create bioinformatics pipelines for doing complex bioinformatic tasks. #DIYBio #synbio

Today we successfully ran part 1 of a bioinformatics training course at KNUST, Kumasi, Ghana. Kudos to @nashalselection for helping with slide content!
We started another capacity building journey today. @SamWithamPhD interning with us through @BeneficialBio started an intro to Bioinformatics and Python for Biologists course teaching sequence databases, BLAST, and basic command lines #synbio
