In our work on engineered living materials, a question we ask ourselves is ‘How can we use synthetic biology to make materials more sustainable?’ In our new preprint, Marcus Walker @Marcus_waal answers this with ‘Bacterial Black Sheep’. How? Read on… 🧵⬇️ biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Self-dyeing textiles grown from cellulose-producing bacteria with engineered tyrosinase expression

Environmental concerns are driving interests in post-petroleum synthetic textiles produced from microbial and fungal sources. Bacterial cellulose is a promising sustainable leather alternative, on...

1/ Very excited to share my first PhD paper out in cell reports!! We show that oxidative stress response heterogeneity in E. coli arises from short range cell-cell interactions. cell.com/cell-reports/fullte…

Phenotypic heterogeneity in the bacterial oxidative stress response is driven by cell-cell intera...

Clonal populations of bacteria often display heterogeneous phenotypes under stress. Here, using single-cell imaging and machine learning, Choudhary et al. show that heterogeneity in the response of...
