Story4.5 out of 5 stars 217
Synthetic biology promises to reveal how life is created and how it can be re-created, enabling scientists to rewrite the rules of our reality. It could help us, for example, heal without prescription medications, grow meat without harvesting animals, or confront our looming climate catastrophe. Synthetic biology will determine the ways in which we conceive future generations and how we define family, how we identify disease and treat aging, where we make our homes, and how we nourish ourselves.

Excellent overview of synthetic biology

Thoroughly enjoyed this overview of synthetic biology. The narration was excellent. We are clearly heading into unknown territory with all of the advances in cellular biology research. It is up to all of us to participate to ensure a positive outcome.
