Back to London for another get together our NextSkins project - this time for our halfway meeting. Wonderful to look back at all the achievements and celebrate these and plan for getting our innovations to work together over the next few years. Exciting ideas!

Paid my first visit to the Future Fabrics Expo today in London run by @Sustainable_Ang and was blown away by the influx of all-things-biology in the fabrics and fashion space.

Project member Salla Koskela from Aalto University created this wonderfully fluorescent version of our NextSkins logo in the lab. Salla made the text by placing a printed NextSkins logo under the agar plate and then spread GFP-expressing E. Coli with inoculation loop.
