Synthetic DNA

Using artificial intelligence, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden have succeeded in designing synthetic DNA that controls the cells’ protein production.  The technology can contribute to the development and production of vaccines and drugs for severe diseases much faster and at lower cost.  Last year, a research group at Chalmers, led by Aleksej Zelezniak, […]

Anita Ramanathan outlines four synthetic biology approaches that are improving and accelerating drug discovery.  The brainchild of multidisciplinary experts in computer science, physics, engineering, and biology, the field of synthetic biology has not only rapidly progressed in the last few decades but it’s also becoming more accessible and cost-effective. It has made its way into almost every aspect […]

By Lu Rahman  There are some exciting developments happening in synthetic biology and as a result the sector is highly attractive from an investment perspective. Using synthetic DNA to develop drugs and to better understand the toxic effects of them is a key driver for this market. BCC Research reports that the global market for […]
