This year we are proud to host the UK iGEM meet up in London. We are calling this event “Young Synthetic Biologists”. Check out the conference page here: www.synbiosoc.org/ysb/ YSB is part of our new vision to develop SynBioSoc into a network for young synthetic biologists. Two years ago we started as a student society ...
Our last SynBio talk recorded at our kick-off event last Monday, this talk explores the use of Synthetic Biology in Bioart. Howard Boland is co-founder and artistic director of C-LAB and an artist working with Synthetic Biology. His research focuses on the use of standardised genetic parts using the MIT-based biobricks library through a laboratory-based practice. Currently, ...
Our third SynBio talk by Sean Ward, CEO and co-founder of Synthace, an applied synthetic biology spinout from UCL. His talks gives a flavor of how university research and collaboration can be turned into products. With the recent advent of the iGEM entrepreneurial competition and a surge in investment, the time to progress synthetic biology ...
Our second SynBio talk is by Dr Chris Barnes from UCL’s Department of Cell and Developmental Biology. He introduces his work as a systems biologist: Drawing an analogy from the development of steam engines, he believes the future of biology will be defined by science and engineering working in tandem, with synthetic biology taking the ...
At our recent kick-off event at UCL, we invited several speakers to cover various angles on Synthetic Biology. We’re publishing these videos as the first SynBio Talks. Our inaugural talk is by Thomas Folliard, currently studying Synthetic Biology MRes at UCL. He gives a short introduction to Synthetic Biology and explains the main principles: How ...
The Synthetic Biology Society has just launched, give us a few more days… Until then, you can see what Synthetic Biology is all about in this video. Check out our iGEM 2012 team: www.ucl.ac.uk/igem2012 Drop us an email at hello@synbiosoc.org to say hi!...
