Taking Pictures with E. coli: Signal Processing Using Synthetic Biology
1053-5888/06/$20.00©2006IEEE O n 24 November 2005, the journal Nature published an article [1] that disclosed how researchers at the University of Cali fornia, San Francisco, and the University of Texas created photographs using the bacterium E. coli . This achievement was made possible by genetically manipulating the bacterium, engineering in light-sensitive genes from algae. The news (discuss...
متن کاملEthical Debates on Synthetic Biology
Background: As an emerging interdisciplinary area of science with a multitude of potential facilities and applications, synthetic biology integrates different disciplines with one another ranging from basic science to engineering. This interdisciplinary branch therefore encompasses sciences that require specific development and ethical approaches. Materials and Methods: Science management princ...

Description: Synthetic biology provides the ability to re-engineer and compose core biological processes in new ways to create robust living systems that address energy, environment, and medical applications. This concentration equips students with essential knowledge and skills on foundational design-oriented models, genetic circuit analysis and design tools, circuit fabrication, characterizat...
متن کاملSynthetic Biology
The past decade has seen tremendous advances in DNA recombination and measurement techniques. These advances have reached a point in which de novo creation of biomolecular circuits that accomplish new functions is now possible, leading to the birth of a new field called synthetic biology. Sophisticated functions that are highly sought in synthetic biology range from recognizing and killing canc...
متن کاملSynthetic biology for synthetic chemistry.
The richness and versatility of biological systems make them ideally suited to solve some of the world's most significant challenges, such as converting cheap, renewable resources into energy-rich molecules; producing high-quality, inexpensive drugs to fight disease; and remediating polluted sites. Over the years, significant strides have been made in engineering microorganisms to produce fuels...
