What is Synthetic Biology - The Next Big Leap for Nature
👋 Hi, I am Mark. I am a strategic futurist and innovation keynote speaker. I advise governments and enterprises on emerging technologies such as AI or the metaverse. My subscribers receive a free weekly newsletter on cutting-edge technology.

Synthetic Biology is a field that aims to engineer living organisms and systems. It's different from traditional biology in that it allows researchers to modify the DNA of organisms to change their structure and function. It has the potential to revolutionise many aspects of our lives by providing new products and solutions, such as biofuels, drugs, and new materials, but it also has potential risks, such as the potential impact on the environment or safety issues.

The novel technology can help address global challenges such as climate change, food security, ocean pollution, biodiversity conservation, and sustainable manufacturing by improving production efficiency and reducing the use of fossil fuels. It's also used in the pharmaceutical and textile industries to produce more efficient drugs and sustainable materials.

Synthetic biology is poised to provide up-and-coming solutions to societal problems, so organisations must pay attention. It is the next frontier in biotechnology, and the possibilities are endless, but stakeholders will have to work together to harness the incredible potential of synthetic biology.
