Humans depends on nitrogen fertilizer to eat. But nitrogen fertilizer is expensive, in short supply, & is a contributor to climate change bc making it releases GHG. @JoynBio, a start-up from @Ginkgo & @LeapsByBayer, aims to solve the problem w/ a microbe. cnb.cx/3NluEjq

Ahead of taking the stage next month, Michael Miille CEO at @JoynBio shares where he sees opportunities to stack #microbial technologies for commercial success. See the full program of discussions on business-critical topics:bit.ly/3mWzfhS
At the nexus of microbiology and agriculture, @JoynBio is seeking beneficial microbes to help protect crops. Join us for a webinar on Wednesday, February 16 at 11AM EST to learn more. #Microbiology #Agriculture hubs.la/Q013ckQY0
Success of @JoynBio like described below is one of the ways $DNA and its many partners help in combating climate change. So much good and potential. So looking forward to this.... xitter.cf/deryck_jeremy/status/1…
Engineered microbes from @JoynBio help crops draw more nitrogen from the air, reducing the need for chemical fertilizer. If adopted broadly, these microbes alone could cut greenhouse gas emissions by 3%. bit.ly/3aI1oCp

We are plant scientists, microbiologists, synthetic biologists, and data scientists. And we’re #hiring! We need 𝘆𝗼𝘂 to help us build tools and microbes to realize the biological potential of the plant microbiome: 🥼 Boston, MA 🌱 Woodland, CA ➡️ bit.ly/2WtQjRF

Joyn Bio (@JoynBio) has engineered a microbe, applied via a seed, that grows with corn/wheat to deliver N. This reduces the amount of N that needs to be added to soil by 40-50%. A great example of #greenchemistry innovation that uses #systemsthinking! fal.cn/3iPYl
Check out this insightful piece in Chasing Zero by @WIRED on the potential impact of nitrogen fixation, featuring @sound_ag, @JoynBio, and Andes Ag, three Leaps portfolio companies.

At Ginkgo Bioworks, we're building a platform to make biology easier to engineer. And we're building it for you! You: the dreamer, the dinosaur-lover, the innovator who wants to change the world. What could our world be if you could grow anything? Happy $DNA Day, everyone!
Engineered microbe helps crop gain nitrogen- Joyn Bio works to bring N fixation technology to seed treatment for corn and wheat to reduce fertilizer inputs by 40% to 50%. bit.ly/3nymU3Y @Willie1701A #Corn #wheat @JoynBio
Material public info for $DNA $SRNG 👇 1st look at @JoynBio's field trial data Results "exciting" Headed towards reliable 40-50% (🧐) nitrogen replacement w good delivery & cost Thesis: if Pivot can sell out of nitrogen-fixing 🦠, think what Joyn can do w transgenic strain
We talk to hundreds of growers. They’ve steered our goal to replace 50% of fertilizer inputs with our nitrogen-fixing #microbes. “Looking at the early results of the prototype products—it’s exciting,” says our CEO Mike Miille. Here’s what’s coming next. bit.ly/3koTB0m

Our iGEM team has been greatly inspired by @JoynBio. The biofertilizer program 🙌🌱
It's going to be a very exciting month for us! To kick it off, we wanted to send y'all some swag bags (incl. a water bottle, t-shirt, stickers and copies of @growbyginkgo). To enter into our little giveaway, QT this with your favorite Ginkgo cell program or one you'd love to see!
