Great to see the @BIA_UK policy submission highlighting the urgent need to support and fund #scale-up in #EngBio #SynBio. Proud that @UCLBiochemEng1 and @LeoRiosLab are contributing actively in this with many success stories helping startups/ industry partners innovate and
The BIA has responded to a call for evidence on scaling UK innovation.➡️ https://t.co/gxlRbEe00f UK life sciences are world-class – but underfunded at scale-up. International investors see the value, but UK pension funds are missing the opportunity. BIA backs action to unlock

Exciting paper from @trichomeIPB et al: "Combinatorial #Biosynthesis in #Yeast leads to Over 200 #diterpenoids" 🌿🧬. By harnessing the versatility/promiscuity of plant synthases/CYPs, they generated 162 new to nature diterpenoids 💪🏼 #synbio #engbio
