Join us for our next Science Cafe:
Reinventing Nature Using Synthetic Biology
Are there limits to how far we should go?
---------------------------------------------------
Scientists are now able to design biological parts or modify existing ones to create new fuels, medicines, foods and cosmetics. Synthetic biology is redefining manufacturing ... perhaps even life itself.
How do we balance benefits and risks? Concerns have been raised about risks to public health and to the environment. How can we ensure that this technology will be regulated and used wisely?
Join us for a discussion of the hot topic of “synthetic biology” in an informal pub atmosphere.
