The BMW2024 was a great success! We would like to thank all the attendees and speakers to make it possible! @kalaskarlab, Joe Morgan, Eleonora Centanini, Chris Bellamy, Marcelo Moglie, Lucy Collinson @em_stp, Bruno Charbit and our keynote speaker David Beebe.
Biological Making Workshop-Abstract deadline extended 1 week. We have extended the abstract submission deadline until 20th September. If you are interested in being considered for a poster or a talk, please submit your abstract here👇forms.office.com/pages/response…
Last hours to submit your abstracts for the Biological Making Workshop 2024!! The deadline is this tomorrow, 13th September!forms.office.com/pages/response…

Last two weeks to submit your abstracts for the Biological Making Workshop 2024!! The deadline is the 13th September! eventbrite.co.uk/e/biological-m…
Our Biological Making workshop is back on 22nd October! If you have any biology project that required making custom made devices you can submit an abstract before 13th September! 🧬⚙️🧫🔬🪛tinyurl.com/3jpmd35y
Check some of the tools we are developing on our list of open access repositories in GitHub! You will find design, manufacturing files and assembly instructions in most of them! github.com/FrancisCrickIn…
Check out the latest video of @MattGrayYES where some of our techniques are featured!
What is light microscopy? 🔬 Kurt Anderson, head of @CALM_STP, explains why it's so important for many researchers at the Crick to have access to the state-of-the-art microscopes he and his team manage.
... So we focused on making this open, clear and practical to implement, including a really detailed "how-to" starter guide and making all the designs freely available on our lab GitHub page (github.com/SerioLab/SOL3D).

Please RT: We are recruiting a Senior Laboratory Research Scientist in our lab @TheCrick to study cell and tissue mechanobiology. @ERC_Research #biophysics #mechanobiology #ECM #organoids crick.ac.uk/research/labs/…
Take a look at some of the amazing “labvent” decorations made by teams around the building! This is just a sample of the colourful and creative works of art that people have put together over the last few weeks 🎄🎁
Only a few days left to apply!!
Excited to share the project that was my starting point on making custom made devices for science with Alex Tran-Van-Minh and @ranczlab at the @TheCrick ! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Our latest publication in collaboration with the @ranczlab. RPM: An open-source Rotation Platform for open- and closed-loop vestibular stimulation in head-fixed Mice. @TheCrick sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Our Biological Making Workshop was a success! We want to thank all our sponsors attendees and speakers: @WindingMichael, Joachim De Jonghe, Radoslav Enchev, CSM Ma BioDesign students and coordinator, Peter Craggs and specially to our keynote speaker professor @julianrjones.
Few last spots available for online attendance to our Biological Making Workshop event happening today at 1:30 pm. eventbrite.co.uk/e/biological-m…
There are just 3 days left to submit an abstract for the 7th Biological Making Workshop taking place on the 30th October 2023 at The Francis Crick Institute. Our keynote speaker this year will be @julianrjones Professor of Biomaterials at @imperialcollege tinyurl.com/bdecf9at
Are you a student interested in 3D printing and tissue engineering? We have a sandwich student position open for next year which aims to combine both in characterizing biomaterials for optimizing bioprinting processes in the lab! tinyurl.com/2p8nawu4
