Synthetic Biology, it is alive, but Is It Life,

Genome engineering and synthetic biology,

Genome Engineering and Synthetic Biology are revolutionizing Life Sciences. Driven by advances in the CRISPR-toolbox for rapid, cheap, multiplex modification of genomes and breakthroughs in DNA synthesis technologies, the pace of progress enabled by these tools in the last 2 years has been breathtaking.
Tools and Technologies meeting (GESB) in September 2013 was a roaring success and we are pleased to announce the 2nd edition of GESB in January, 2016. The symposium will bring together some of the most highly regarded Academics and Companies in the world with novel technologies in several sessions, with topics focused on,

Then we discovered that what makes living things different from other matter is a special combination of proteins called DNA. This contained everything there was and is (and, to a certain extent, will be) to know about a particular organism. Then, scientists learned how to read the entire DNA sequence (or genome) of organisms 20 years ago, and the possibilities for life took a step forward with the advent of synthetic biology.
