Since molecular biology was first established, in the 1930s, the complexity of various biological systems have been explored in order to better understand these systems. As years went by, and our understanding of these systems increased, the information that fell under the, large and ever-growing, umbrella of “molecular biology” became more specific and eventually subdivided […]

The Application of Synthetic Biology to Human Health and Medicine
Synthetic biology is a new interdisciplinary subject established in bioinformatics, DNA synthetic technology, genetics, and systems biology. Synthetic biology is the rational and systematic design/construction of biological systems with desired functionality. One of its most powerful tools is DNA synthesis technology; recently, the cost of gene synthesis has dropped 10 fold over the past 15 […]
Synthetic Biology and Drug Discovery
Synthetic biology utilizes information from fields such as biotechnology, molecular biology, molecular engineering, and many more in order to design and build novel biological functions and systems. Synthetic biology is the engineering of biology itself, and will have profound implications on all levels of biological structure. One of the applications of synthetic biology is to […]
How Synthetic Biology Leads to Renewable Energy
Synthetic Biology aims to engineer the nature organisms that the system can perform new fuction or construct new material. Biofuel refers to solid, liquid, or gaseous fuel produced through contemporary biological processes, such as agriculture and anaerobic digestion. Biofuel has great potential to replace petroleum, gasoline, and diesel, and is an important factor in the […]
