Dandelion reveals a new type of flight mechanism. The highly porous parachute allows leaky flows, which create a stable air bubble that pulls the seed up via pressure gradient. Thanks to the support from @LeverhulmeTrust @royalsociety

Wow @Ginkgoo moving into engineered mammalian cells. Their foundry approach could really push this artisanal space to a whole new level. This is very exciting. #SynBio #syntheticCells #mammalian #Engineering

The synthetic biology company has opened a new foundry to churn out mammal cells, first for drug development, and later to build potentially anything at all.

Interesting results showing that high salt selects against good microbes in mice and human gut. Question is how lasting is this effect in humans, what is the resilience of the microbiome? @ejalm #microbiome
