What is synthetic biology?
Synthetic biology is an interdisciplinary field that combines biology, engineering, and computer science to design and construct new biological entities or redesign existing ones for useful purposes. Synthetic biology is like engineering with living things. Scientists take bits of DNA, the instruction manual of life, and redesign them to create new organisms or make existing ones perform new functions.
Ask any science related question to the community. You can ask an unlimited number of questions but only 3 can remain unaddressed at any given time. All your questions will be listed under “Questions“
Your question is screened for subject matter and assigned to the most appropriate experts in the subject. If your question is deemed too verbose or unclear, it will be rejected, at which point you can modify your question for resubmission.
The assigned experts submit their answers within a set duration, after which the first submission is scrutinized for correctness. If deemed as such, the answer is made public, otherwise the question is re-submitted to the assigned panel of experts.
Once public, your question will be visible to the entire community on the AfriSD answers page, with credit to the expert who provided the answer.
