Not sure if that's what @biochemsoc.bsky.social had in mind when asking us to share our conference experience with the tags #BiochemEvent and #SBUK2025, but here comes my humorous SKETCH of this week's London gathering
open.substack.com/pub/ksechkar...
Brilliant to have @rochelleaw.bsky.social back in the UK and starting up her group at Nottingham. Doing really cool cell-free glycosylated protein production. #sbuk #sbuk2025
Great talk by Sarah Guiziou on all of the amazing things integrases can be used for to study and engineer plant roots. And how to engineer root-microbe interactions #sbuk #sbuk2025
Policy and Innovation Panel discussion underway. Lots of questions from the audience. No easy answers to solving the training, policy, scale up and engagement challenges that still exist around Engineering Biology #sbuk2025 #sbuk
Really impressive talk on artificial cells and all the behaviours that can be built up inside them using DNA by @waltherlab.bsky.social #sbuk2025 #sbuk
And we're off with an overview of a decade of Synthetic Biology UK conferences by the amazing Karen Polizzi #sbuk25 #sbuk2025 #syntheticbiology #synbio #engineeringbiology
We welcome Clara Koehler to #SBUK2025 🎉
Her talk on biobased materials + net zero shows how you can cut carbon & also why wider changes in how we build are essential.

Straw is a co-product.
This matters when you’re counting carbon.
🎥 and this clip of 1 min 20 sec. says it all:
We will go further at the SBUK Symposium 2025.

🌾 Tangent alert: straw is not a waste product - it's a co-product.
📊 That difference matters for carbon accounting.
🧱 We explore it at the SBUK Symposium 2025.

You don’t need to believe in #biophilia or understand it to value comfort, air quality, & low bills.
Straw & other biobased building materials are not alternatives - they are fundamentals.
Good materials speak for themselves.
