We need to speed up design-build-test cycles in bioengineering

Photocatalytic low-temperature defluorination of PFASs - Nature Photocatalysis at 40–60 °C is shown to be able to defluorinate perfluoroalkyl substances, known as ‘forever chemicals’, allowing the recycling of fluorine in polyfluoroalkyl and perfluoroalkyl substan...

There are two really cool #PFAS / #foreverchemicals degradation papers out in Nature today

In one, the authors show that powdered Teflon can be transformed into charcoal+fluoride with light+a catalyst+reducing reagent & some very important help from mainly KOH and Cs formate

This is bonkers cool:

@dr-alphalyrae.bsky.social shares great papers and insights on BioML!

I primarily use X/twitter to identify interesting papers. My feed on Bluesky is struggling big time. Any recommendations for people who post Bio x ML papers/blogs/essays/resources?

Want to make beautiful scientific figures? Easy!

The NIH released a library of 2000+ free scientific illustrations called *BioArt*.

Hey Ben! I work on AI for proteomics. Would love to be added!

I’d love to be added!

I would love to be on the list if possible!

Hi! I work on AI for proteomics, would love to be added

Thanks for the warm welcome, Rowynn! 🙌 Your work sounds fascinating—applying XR to therapeutics for neurodivergent populations is so impactful. I’d love to learn more about how psychology and design come together in your research!
