Research Videos
Below are 3 videos that highlight our findings and illustrate our approaches using tissue cultures, synthetic biology, and analytical chemistry:
- Prof. Carolyn Lee-Parsons sharing two stories to illustrate our findings and our approaches
- Ms. Amanda Dee, Bioengineering Major, on developing synthetic biology tools for engineering plant tissue cultures.
- Ms. Charlotte Leggett and Mr. Joshua Garvey, Chemistry & Chemical Biology Majors, on identifying medicinal alkaloids produced in CRISPR-Cas9 edited cultures through mass spectrometry.
Many thanks for funding and support from the National Science Foundation, the MA Acorn Grant, the Mass Clean Energy Catalyst Grant, Northeastern Tier I and GapFund 360 Grants.
