The DNA belonged to an extinct horse genus and is the oldest genome ever collected from an open-air site.

🍦Our Genes to Scoops roadshow made a stop in Zurich, Switzerland! What a great time catching up with colleagues, chatting about research, and catching up with the team! We loved the chance to unwind together and talk science. @TwistBioscience

History rarely names its infrastructures while they’re being built. • Gold was just metal until it became money. • TCP/IP was just plumbing until it became the internet. Bitcoin may be next. See my latest article: The Movement to Anchor Stablecoins on Bitcoin 🔗

AI can now predict protein designs, but turning predictions into physical validation? That remains a bottleneck. @TwistBioscience's DNA synthesis platform bridges this gap by compressing antibody discovery timelines with 3–4x higher success rates. https://t.co/9tFeyRmtc5

Great Q&A with @mason_lab and @GenomeWeb about some of our favorite topics: genetics, epigenetics, CRISPR, and more. Q&A: Chris Mason on Genomics Across the Tree of Life, Reprogramming Cells, and the Next 500 Years | GenomeWeb
genomeweb.com
Mason likens the path to interplanetary genomics to the building of cathedrals in the Middle Ages: "It's bigger than you, it's kind of humbling in a way."

Red-team testing is critical in strengthening biosecurity and we’re proud to be at the forefront of this work with such a great team!
In “Ideas,” collaborators Eric Horvitz, Bruce Wittmann, Tessa Alexanian, & James Diggans discuss a red-teaming effort that exposed & secured a biosecurity vulnerability in AI-driven protein design—& what the work shows about managing AI’s dual-use risks. https://t.co/T9c0ESXZUm
