Global science lies at the edge of a new age of discovery thanks to advances in synthetic biology driving innovations that could reshape human health. Synthetic biology involves redesigning organisms at a cellular level to grant them new abilities. It is, at first blush, the stuff of science fiction; but in fact, it is a reality here in Seattle.
In this episode of Lab Notes, we explore the promise and potential of this exciting field with some of the leading minds spearheading efforts to understand the foundational principles of the human cell. This cutting-edge work aims to turn cells into living DNA recorders chronicling their complete cellular histories to shed light on health and disease with unprecedented clarity. If successful, it could light the path forward to new celluar therapies that are able to make decisions after they are introduced into patients.
Behind every science headline, there is a human story. Hear about the scientific advancements aiming to shape the cures of tomorrow with Lab Notes: A podcast from the Allen Institute. Streaming everywhere.
