Ethical 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...
متن کاملWhat exactly is synthetic biology?
Artificial everything: Steven Benner’s group made the first artificial gene encoding a protein and has since then moved on to create a whole range of non-natural molecular biology ingredients. (Photo: courtesy of Steven Benner.) Life is notoriously difficult to define. As our chances of discovering extraterrestrial life are gradually improving, astrobiology is still struggling to define what on...
متن کاملSynthetic Biology: Now that We're Creators, What Should We Create?
A 'synthetic' microbe has been created by introducing the artificially produced genome of one species into the cytoplasm of another. The technology allows the introduction of easily transferable adaptive units, as well as sets of genes that have likely never been transferred successfully.

متن کاملSynthetic biology routes to bio-artificial intelligence
The design of synthetic gene networks (SGNs) has advanced to the extent that novel genetic circuits are now being tested for their ability to recapitulate archetypal learning behaviours first defined in the fields of machine and animal learning. Here, we discuss the biological implementation of a perceptron algorithm for linear classification of input data. An expansion of this biological desig...
