Excited to share the latest paper from the Riglar lab @imperialinfect.bsky.social & @crick.ac.uk.
We use #synbio for biosensor discovery in our quest to build 'smart probiotics' to sense and treat disease.
Well done @clare-r.bsky.social et al!
Thanks to @wellcometrust.bsky.social for funding!

#synbio people - are there any examples of published results from public consultation on the idea of delivering synthetic engineered organisms/cells to patients in the clinic?
