Let it snow... snowflakes made from natural pigments?! ❄️ Throwback to BioInks, where we extracted pH-sensitive pigment from bacteria to make ink 🧫🎨! You too can create your own natural paints at home with our Cabbage Inks activity! More holiday fun at thetechathome.org/post/eight…

Let’s celebrate culture, both microbial and social! 🦠 As a @mirzayanfellow, I led a community art project with the Board on Life Sciences at @theNASEM. We grew #KombuchaLeather in the office 🧫 to make microbial portraits! Blog: bit.ly/3FutvCd

Mushrooms. It’s what’s for dinner… table. On #NationalMushroomDay 🍄, peep our custom BioTinkering Lab tables made with the Reishi mushroom + agricultural waste + some help from our friends at @MycoWorksInc ! Sustainable science at its finest.

Sharing again but with higher voltage—rehydrated algae string is conducive!! Last image is before it was soaked over night and tested w/ a 9v battery. How might we program biomaterial circuitry into woven garments that trigger circuits when wet? @TheTechInteract @biophilebytes
