I've been very excited to share this with the community! We have built yeast cells that can directly communicate with human immune cells and control their behavior. In this first study, we use the yeast to simulate cancer cells to study immunotherapies.

Late-evening #preprint by @TheDeichmann et al. @DTUBiosustain @DTU_HealthTech on the development of a #yeast chassis for simulating #cancer cells & tuneable activation of clinically-derived CAR T cells: bit.ly/3QxQdBT. Huge congrats to all and to @novonordiskfond for €

So excited that the #synbiofh23 conference is finally here. Our first keynote speaker is the wonderful Yvonne Chen from UCLA. Time to hear about advanced engineering of CAR-T cell therapies.

I am so happy to finally share this work - it has been an amazing journey! I hope we can supply the yeast synthetic biology community with new technology for the toolbox!🧬🧫
Exciting news: Yeast synthetic mating and probiotic GPCR-signaling! Please check out preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…. Thanks to the Villum Experiment Programme @VELUXFONDEN for supporting this work and to all the great people involved.
