Digital Genome Engineering: Unlocking the Potential of Synthetic Biology - Inscripta®

Digital Genome Engineering: Unlocking the Potential of Synthetic Biology

Inscripta’s Symposium — January 2022

Synthetic biology is disrupting diverse markets from chemicals to food, cosmetics, materials, and therapeutics. Whether you’re a metabolic engineer optimizing lysine biosynthesis in E. coli or seeking to conduct a genome-wide functional genomics screen in yeast, Digital Genome Engineering is the key to unlocking the limitless applications of synthetic biology. Realizing the full potential of this game changing technology in your research requires accessing the latest tools, understanding industry trends, and learning from best practices of industry leaders.

In partnership with SynBioBeta, Inscripta® brought together synthetic biology thought leaders for an innovative symposium. The sessions featured perspectives from industry leaders, highlight the latest innovations in Digital Genome Engineering, and provide a vision for the future of SynBio.

Session 1: A Vision for Engineering Biology: Exploring Rational and Empirical Design Space

Session 2: Rapid Protein and Strain Improvement with Iterative Genome Engineering

Session 1 & 2: Q&A

Session 3: Customer Perspectives: What Will Be the Next SynBio Success Story?

A Vision for Engineering Biology: Exploring Rational and Empirical Design Space

Hear from the leading scientists developing the next generation of enabling technologies about what we have learned from decades of engineering biological systems and how can we apply this knowledge to accelerate SynBio innovation.
