Looking forward to welcoming Julius to @nus_syncti 🥂
After many exciting years in Cambridge, I’m thrilled & honoured to announce that I’ll be starting a research group at National University of Singapore this Summer. Keep an eye on Fredens Lab if you’re interested in #syntheticbiology and stay tuned for postdoc and PhD ads in weeks

Two years ago we created a bacterium #syn61 with a new genetic code. Now we've put the bug to good use and shown that it 1) is resistant to cocktails of viruses, and 2) can be programmed to produce polymers made entirely from non-canonical amino acids. science.sciencemag.org/conte…

Inspiring to see how the synthetic biology community is growing in Indonesia! Looking forward to meeting with them again at SBB2021. BTW, I now look very different from the photo below with much longer hair 😉 #SynBio #SyntheticBiology #SynBioAsia

If the 21st century is supposed to be THE CENTURY OF BIOLOGY then, entering our third decade, why are we still organized and investing like the 20th century?

Next generation of global #biodiversity goals. Hope all will be achieved way before 2050.
In response to the goals proposed in the draft post-2020 Global #Biodiversity Framework...we urge negotiators to consider three points that are critical if the agreed goals are to stabilize or reverse nature's decline." Learn more: ($) fcld.ly/ye36vjl #SciMagPolicyForum

One of my favorite places in the world is #SingaporeBotanicGardens! A morning walk there always helps set my priorities straight & brings more inspiration & appreciation for #Biodiversity. #UNESCOHeritageSites
