Harvard:Synthetic Biology Nanocourse/2007
From OpenWetWare
Intellectual Unit: Experimental Tools for Biological Discovery
Synthetic Biology: Cellular and Molecular Engineering
Instructors
- Nanocourse Director: Pam Silver
- Nanocourse Lecturers: George Church, William Shih and Pam Silver
Course Description
- Synthetic biology explores the design rules for building artificial behavior or
biomolecular systems through cycles of construction and comparison of intended versus
observed behaviors. The ability to synthesize biomimetic behavior is an important
benchmark for biological understanding. This course will introduce strategies for
engineering cellular and molecular systems and will explore current and future
applications for synthetic biology approaches.
