Targeted toward middle- and high-school students, DNAFactory demonstrates the steps a Gene Synthesis factory or laboratory would go through to produce DNA molecules; specifically, when creating a DNA sample, the target sequence is subdivided into shorter DNA fragments called oligos, which can be synthesized using a chemical process. […] Developing a culture of security for synthetic biology I was recently interviewed by Andrew Snyder-Beattie from the Future of Humanity Institute.
Fostering Transdisciplinary Science with Cyberinfrastructures I want to tell you how cyber-infrastructures can enable large research research projects involving specialists from multiple disciplines and why it makes economic sense to develop such an infrastructure. Chase the dream, not the money: the dirty little secrets of proposal writing Development of Synthetic Flu Vaccines Google DNA Map I owe to Mary Mangan from OpenHelix this gem.

Last semester, John Muschelli and I had to collaborate on two class projects, one consisting of writing a report for a DNA methylation data analysis, the other about presenting a fascinating paper on the asymptotics of subsampling estimators.
That means we had 3 latex documents — one article and two beamer presentations that we were simultaneously working on every day (and every night). Synchronizing the files, even if we both use regularly version control (like GitHub or BitBucket), would have been a nightmare: who really wants to commit every 30 seconds? Thankfully, John knew about shareLatex, and I called it an end-of-semester miracle. Here is why shareLatex is awesome: Have you ever been lost in translation (or to be L.I.T. as Muschelli likes to say)? I experience the L.I.T. on a daily basis, and believe me, it is sometimes really embarrassing. L.I.T.
