Thanks to Nature Biomedical Engineering for featuring our EV bioengineering work on the cover (beautiful art created by Justin Muir), along with a nice editorial: nature.com/natbiomedeng/v…
Our last farm. Grateful to all the farmers who shared their farms, time and perspectives with us.
Leaving with so many ideas to improve crop pathogen diagnostic tests. Excited to take this work with Gates Foundation to the next level!

Field work is also hard! You never know what could happen and you need to adapt on the fly. Here we are digging our transport out of the mud with the generous help of community members! Northwestern CSB #synbiofortheplanet
Updates from the field. Visiting lots of sweet potato fields and trying out our tests. Learning some important things about field work and reaction performance in the heat (30C!).
VERY positive feedback from farmers - they want tests ASAP!
