Leading synthetic biologists have shared hard-won lessons from their decade-long quest to build the world's first synthetic ...

Research shows synthetic chromosomes can be transferred to human cells with potential to improve viral resistance ...

Researchers have developed synthetic genes that function like the genes in living cells. The artificial genes can build intracellular structures through a cascading sequence that builds ...

Molecular instructions in living cells can be timed rather like the notes or chords in a piece of music. For example, a finite number of genes can be activated and expressed in different orders, for ...

In a landmark feat of genetic engineering, researchers at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) in Cambridge have created a strain of Escherichia coli that functions with just 57 codons, down ...

A novel approach that incorporates components from many disciplines, allowing people from many different backgrounds to access synthetic biology education. The field of synthetic biology, the science ...

Carolus Vitalis grew up in a small town in Chile—a town so small it doesn’t appear on any maps. Now he’s at the forefront of a large, impactful discussion: the pros and cons of artificial intelligence ...

Experienced senior executive brings proven track record in financial strategy, operational excellence, and commercial execution ...

NEW YORK - Thanks to recent advances in synthetic biology - a hybrid discipline of engineering and biology that makes possible the manipulation of DNA of microorganisms such as yeast, bacteria, fungi ...

This radical new method could preserve our entire knowledge base for thousands of years, in a storage medium the size of a coffee cup.
