Synthetic biology is an emerging area of scientific research at the interface of biology,  chemistry and engineering. The research promises cheaper and faster routes to drugs,  biofuels, and new materials for medical applications. However, synthetic biology also provokes controversy because it aims to ‘engineer biology’. Join scientists and ethicists from the University of Bristol for a lively evening discussion.
Speakers

Professor Dek Woolfson and Dr Ainsley Newson
