“As president, I believe that robotics can inspire young people to pursue science and engineering. And I also want to keep an eye on those robots in case they try anything.”
A collection of notes, thoughts, and news about synthetic biology and biologically inspired engineering in principle and in practice.
WHY
Synthetic biology aims to redesign biological systems in order to better understand them and to make useful products. What is going on in synthetic biology today, and how will it affect science, technology, industry, and society in the future?
WHO
I'm a graduate student at the Harvard Medical School working on a PhD on synthetic biology approaches to bioenergy. Do you spend as much time thinking about synthetic biology as I do? Send me a note and say hi!
