Metabolic engineering and bioproduction — engineering a pathway to a lab titer is the easy part; commercial-scale $/kg cost-competitiveness is the real bottleneck
Evidence-first notes on bioscience and deep tech, at the edge of the lab and the market. Information only — not investment advice. All titer, yield, carbon-cost, $/kg and capex figures are attributed to the specific strain, conditions, techno-economic (TEA) assumptions or announcement they come from; peer-reviewed data, company claims, trade press and TEA models are…

The synthetic-biology landscape — DNA writing is cheap and genome-scale writing works, but the bottleneck is design predictability and scale-up economics, and the “synbio winter” is a business-model failure as much as a scientific one
Evidence-first notes on bioscience and deep tech, at the edge of the lab and the market. Information only — not investment advice. All titer, yield and cost figures are attributed to the strain, condition or announcement they come from, and peer-reviewed results are kept separate from company claims and trade-press reporting (noted inline). Company outcomes…
