Decoding synthetic biology
QB3 scientists illustrate how the new science of synthetic biology makes biology easier to engineer so that new functions can be derived from living systems.
Imagine living cells acting as memory devices; biofuels brewing from yeast, or a light receptor taken from algae that makes photographs on a plate of bacteria. With the new science of synthetic biology, the goal is to make biology easier to engineer so that new functions can be derived from living systems. Find out the tools that Bay Area synthetic biologists are using and the exciting things they are building. KQED (video)
