Founded by Nobel Laureate Jennifer Doudna, the Innovative Genomics Institute is using genome engineering to solve humanity’s greatest problems in health, climate, and sustainable agriculture.
2022 WIES Fellow @LinDu_LD, a postdoc in the @nanoassembly lab, aims to develop synthetic DNA biosensors for simultaneous detection of hundreds of viruses species. Learn more: https://t.co/ZIGvIGABgg
"At some level, we’re all scientists, because being a scientist is about being curious about our natural world. That’s true whether we’re studying black holes or slime molds or working on #CRISPR."
