Synbio won't mean shit if we can't deploy it at scale. We have to go big. REALLY big. And relying solely on bioreactors won't get us there. https://t.co/JB5ErWWMWc

History being made! Not via the GRAS process but rather via FDA's CCC (cell-culture consultation) process for cell-cultured foods. FDA's role in this endeavor cannot be overstated - kudos to FDA! As...

Advice for young entrepreneurs/CEOs in #SynBio from @EmilyLeproust @TwistBioscience @BuiltWithBio 1) Don't stop fundraising - you have to keep at it all of the time. 2) Focus on company culture from day one. 3) It may feel lonely at times, but that feeling will pass.

All the love in the world. ❤❤
Today we said goodbye to my wonderful wife and soulmate, Ling. She will live on in the hearts of those who loved her and the legacy of her work. Thank you to everyone who has shown us such love and support since she was taken from us.

Nice example of dialysis to control cell waste, increase cell density, reduce growth factor use, & reduce cost Underappreciated that cells in sufficiently high density cultures can use their own paracrine growth factors, rather than exogenous addition https://t.co/u6rUTeE44D

Absolutely spectacular video showing how mRNA Covid vaccines actually work. The human immune system - and the science which went into harnessing it through vaccines - is mind blowingly beautiful Watch. Enjoy. Learn. Vaccinate. #GetVaccinated
