In 1879, Thomas Edison flipped a switch—and the world changed forever. The light bulb wasn’t just a breakthrough; it was magic. Artificial light that burned without fire? People thought it was sorcery. But with every miracle comes fear… The gas industry declared war on electricity. Propaganda warned of deadly...

We are creating a lightbulb from scratch. But instead of electricity, we're harnessing the power of genetic engineering to create unicorns and flying dragons, and the next generation of genomic medicine.

The genome is an infinite puzzle. Traditional science has always tried to solve the puzzle by asking "how": How does each puzzle piece fit with the one next to it? We're brute-forcing it. Trying the infinite combinations and expediting the completion of the puzzle.

Identifying genes linked to complex phenotypes. Computer vision for embryo selection. Combinations of hundreds and thousands of genes and variants in vast species. Gestation to live birth. The science is here, and it's time to scale it. The future of biology belongs to all of you. New technology needs updated ethical frameworks—not outdated virtue signals.

For decades, biology stagnated because of overfunded companies, unimaginative commercialization playbooks, and power maximalists in academia. It's no surprise that science has lost its magic in the minds of the public. That's why I believe in the consumerization of biotech as the first step of the greater mission I hold. Here's to the next chapter @WeBuildLife

Biology is technology. Build it. Genetics is code. Rewrite it. Evolution is a system. Control it.

Everyone knows Thomas Edison invented the lightbulb. 💡 Everyone is wrong. His name was Joseph Swan. Born in Pallion, Sunderland. Son of a failed entrepreneur. No university. No laboratory. No backing. Just a chemist's apprentice in his home town who couldn't stop thinking about light. He worked on it for twenty years. Along the way he invented bromide photographic paper. Artificial fibre, the process that led to rayon. Over seventy patents. And still nobody had made a lightbulb that worked. Then on the 18th of December 1878, in a lecture hall in Newcastle, he switched it on. It burned bright. Then it broke. But the idea was proven. ⚡ Six weeks later, 3rd February 1879, he demonstrated it again. This time it worked. Seven hundred people watched the room light up. Eight months before Thomas Edison. Edison heard about it. Filed a patent. Then sued Swan in America. The US Patent Office found against Edison. ✅ Edison sued Swan in Britain. The British courts found against Edison again. ✅✅ As part of the settlement, Edison was forced into a partnership with Swan. The company was called Ediswan. Swan's patents. Swan's filament design. Edison's name first. Eventually Edison bought him out. Swan was knighted in 1904. The Savoy Theatre, the first building in the world lit entirely by electricity, used his bulbs. Edison got the credit. Swan got a knighthood nobody remembers. And history forgot Sunderland. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Did they teach you his name? Together we keep our history alive. Be part of us. 🙏 Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧
