- | Science is constantly in a state of flux and the lines between biology, math, physics and chemistry are continually being redrawn. In the last decade, the life sciences revolution has continued to grow, but a new type of biology is on the horizon, a biology that not only understands how DNA holds the information to construct biological machines; but a biology that calls on other fields and is able to model, design and synthesize these machines from A’s C’s T’s and G’s. This is the new field of Synthetic Biology.
