Wish I could make this but no time!

Feck welding and brewing - SyntheticBio is the way forward!

And its Cork based (like a wine bottle stopper!)

Gah. Just saw this now. I need to check all of the forums more frequently. Long term, I'd love to get into systems biology.

[johnrm]

Do you mean Synthetic Biology?

[bigvalen]

Well, no. Yes. Maybe. Systems Biology is when you take what others about the tens if thousands of different proteins, enzymes etc. and concentrate on how they interact as a while. Kinda like my day job with computers, only a little smaller :-)

If people like this sort of stuff, I strongly recommend the "Meet The Scientist" podcast from MicrobeWorld.org - there are even some good episodes on yeast and brewing.

I have you now.

I went to the conference, some really interesting stuff, although a lot of it was over my head.
One lady did a presentation on DIY microfluidics...
