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 of 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.
