In today’s hot plasmids podcast, we’ll discuss plasmid tools for controlling synaptic transmission, noninvasive imaging of microbes in mammalian hosts, miRNA reporters, and screening immune cell lineages.

Hot Plasmids Episode 11: Optogenetics, Acoustic Reporter Genes, microRNAs, and the CRISPR-Cas9 system CHIME

In today's Hot Plasmids podcast, we discuss plasmids for controlling CRISPR-Cas9 using optogenetics, a 2in1 Cloning System, a new fluorescent voltage indicator, and photoswitchable proteins.

Hot Plasmids Episode 10: Anti-CRISPR, 2in1 Cloning, Fluorescent Voltage Indicators, and Photoswitchable Proteins

In today’s hot plasmids podcast, we discuss plasmid tools for RNAi in C. elegans, proximity labeling, detecting viral outbreaks, and mapping protein binding specificity.

Hot Plasmids Episode 9: RNAi, TurboID, Viral Outbreaks, and Protein Binding Specificity Tools

In this episode, we discuss an innovative optogenetics system, a new way to visualize RNA production and localization, a new red fluorescent protein, and the APOBEC- and Cas9-mediated Editing (ACE) system.

Hot Plasmids Episode 8: Optogenetics, RNA Localization, Fluorescent Protein, and Base-editing Tools

In this episode of the Addgene Podcast, we introduce you to the Journal of Emerging Investigators, an open-access journal that enables high school students to publish peer-reviewed scientific research. You’ll meet some of the folks behind the journal and hear from a fantastic team of high school students who recently submitted to the journal with funding from Addgene.
