Synthetic biology (SB) is a new and exciting multidisciplinary field that has the ambitious goal of “engineering biology”. The goal of synthetic biologists is to (re)engineer biological systems through the application of engineering principles. Engineered biological systems are finding applications in industry and medicine and, equally importantly, provide a basis for understanding natural biological systems.
