Fascinated by what I can "squeeze" out of plant cells under microscopes spiced up with synthetic biology. 🔬
PhDone 🌱 at JIC (UK), now a postdoc at the MPIPZ (Cologne, Germany). Sometimes too sarcastic. 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 he/him

Do you know if and when you’ll extend the ‘RNA-Seq from purified RNA’ service to non-US customers?

So that I can use it for plants in the EU?
