Facts: 1. Certain microbes can fix atmospheric nitrogen and avail that nitrogen in a form plants can use. This is how many plants get the nitrogen they need. 2. We can find, optimize and commercialize these microbes faster than ever before. Don't believe me? On April 10 in Orlando, FL, hear my colleague Cleiton De Sequeira at The Fertilizer Show speak to this using concrete case studies and data. #biologicals #nitrogen #nfix #synbio #agriculture #sustainability https://lnkd.in/dNe4XbU5

The fertilizer industry stands at a critical inflection point. As growers and regulators demand more sustainable and cost-effective solutions, synthetic biology offers a powerful pathway to innovation. On April 10 at The Fertilizer Show (https://lnkd.in/eHckTS9e), I'll dive into how biotechnology can help companies diversify their portfolios and address key industry challenges. We'll share concrete case studies on nitrogen-fixing microbes and fermentation-derived phytohormones, along with lead biological candidates ready for rapid commercialization. Interested in getting ahead of the biological innovation curve? Stop by our presentation and let's explore how synthetic biology can rewrite agricultural innovation. #TFS25 #syntheticbiology

At Ginkgo Datapoints, we generate vast datasets to unlock insights in functional genomics—managing thousands of small molecule compounds per campaign. That’s why we’re excited to partner with Tangible Scientific, experts in sample management, to ensure speed and quality in our workflows. With Tangible Scientific's Massachusetts-based facilities, we benefit from rapid turnaround times and impeccable sample integrity, helping us push the boundaries of discovery even faster. 🔬 Learn more about Ginkgo Datapoints: https://lnkd.in/exSXDF5F 📦 Explore Tangible Scientific’s services: https://lnkd.in/e4rRUN8r

Boston friends! Join us the evening of Thursday, April 3rd for the Engineering Biology Club to connect with other folks in the ecosystem who are building with biology. https://hubs.la/Q03d98mM0

I'm looking forward to sharing some lessons learned in making large-scale biofoundries at the upcoming American Chemical Society meeting in San Diego. My thanks to Zhao Huimin for the invitation to speak and to the ACS organizers for putting on the show!

Had the pleasure of learning about lab automation at NVIDIA GTC's healthcare and life science pavilion, catching up with Ginkgo Bioworks, Inc.' GM and VP Will Serber at NVIDIA's GTC to see their "LEGO-like" lab automation system in action. These Reconfigurable Automation Carts (RACs) are creating structured data for AI analysis while human scientists focus on bigger questions. Think of how AI is helping streamline coding. A similar trend could come to the lab where humans focus more on the overall structure of the task (here, an experiment). Oh, and the RACs can snap together similar to LEGOs. It is a bit slower than pressing two blocks together but not by much — only taking about 10 minutes.

If you're at GTC, stop by our booth in the Healthcare Pavilion to chat about AI-driven science and closed-loop labs. We're right next to the main NVIDIA booth and we've brought robots!

I'm looking forward to speaking at #TXBiomedGHS on the topic of re-emerging #infectious #diseases that pose new and persistent threats. Hope to see you in person in #SATX or virtually! https://lnkd.in/gQmGHCtS

Incredibly excited to see the launch of these new enzyme panels at Ginkgo to help customers find biocatalysts for their manufacturing needs. Lots of new and selective oxidative transformations now available to screen. Reach out to learn more!
