Last Monday I ran a DIY microbiology workshop embedding textiles to capture traces of the bacteria with students visiting from @Princeton University. Today I was able to look at the results and peel off the textiles for pasteurisation tomorrow. These are some of my favourites

I am very happy that this new synthetic biology blog post is out discussing how art and synbio can work together
Our new blog post features the bioarist @AnnaDumitriu whose work revolves around biology through sculpture, installation and digital media. 🖼️🧬 Curious to see what is the connection between SynBio and Art? Check out our new blog post here: eusynbios.org/blogs/synbio-a…

Did you do something for #WorldHandHygieneDay ? Fret not! There's still time to show students the amount of microbes that stick to our hands through contact with high traffic surfaces and between people.
