Tabla de Contenidos:
- What new foundational technologies and tools are required to make biology easier to engineer?
- What are the significant differences, if any, between risk assessment capacity and religious analyses of the moral for synthetic permissibility biology applications and other biotechnology application?
- Reconstructing gene circuitry: how can synthetic biology lead us to an understanding of the principles underlying natural genetic circuits and to the discovery of new biology?
- Designing communities of cells: how do we create communication and collaboration between cells to allow for specialization and division of labor?
- Why are human-designed biological circuits and devices fragile and inaccurate relative to their natural counterparts?
- How can genomics be leveraged to develop coherent approaches for rapidly exploring the biochemical diversity in and engineering of non-model organisms?
- How do we move beyond genetics to engage chemical and physical approaches to synthetic biology?
- What is the role of evolution and evolvability in synthetic biology?
- How do we maximally capitalize on the promise of synthetic biology?
