Camena Bioscience

Thank you to the Careers Service, University of Cambridge for inviting me to participate in yesterday's panel discussion 'Finding your Scientific Fit'. It's always fascinating to hear other colleagues journeys and experiences. Clearly there is a multitude of ways to reach to the same outcome, depending on people's wishes and circumstances. Ellecia S. and I will be attending the Life Sciences Fair on Tuesday, 29th October. Please stop by if you would like to hear more about Camena Bioscience

Will it sequence? Synthetic DNA. Our VP of R&D James Richardson teamed up with Illumina's Ilaria Grizzi for this interesting episode of the The Naked Scientists, Naked Genetics podcast. Together they ran an interesting experiment and talked through the world of synthetic DNA. If you'd like to know the results, here is the episode: https://lnkd.in/eXg3RnXh

Today, part of our team stepped out of the office and labs to volunteer with Cambridge City Council. We spent the day helping maintain Byron Square in Trumpington. The council is reducing its use of weedkillers in a drive to increase biodiversity. Therefore, they need volunteers to help maintain these green spaces and parks. And we got lucky with the weather. 😎

Before and after shots of team Camena Bioscience at today's Chariots of Fire race in Cambridge. It was 'slightly' wet, but there was still a great turnout for the event. The race is supporting Magpas Air Ambulance, which provides emergency medical treatment across the East of England. Since its foundation in 1971, Magpas Air Ambulance has treated over 70,000 patients. There is JustGiving donation page is below. Thank you for your support. https://lnkd.in/eSawVW9J
