- In this talk Dr. Wallace explains the ways in which synthetic biologic will help us tackle climate change. Dr. Stephen Wallace is an Associate Professor of Biotechnology and UKRI Future Leaders Fellow in the School of Biological Sciences at the University of Edinburgh. He received a DPhil in Organic Chemistry from the University of Oxford and is a designer of microorganisms with a drive to create new biotechnologies that can enable the manufacture of chemicals such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics from sustainable materials as opposed to fossil fuels. Research from his lab has achieved the bio-production of nylon precursors from plant biomass and paper waste, and the production of vanilla flavouring from plastic waste. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
Synthetic biology doesn't just reprogram microbes. It's also construction of therapeutics or even creation of new organs or eventually living prosthetics for handicapped people. The latter has been my dream for years.
It’s also used to create smaller people to lesson carbon footprint and create food allergies to decrease our meat consumption.
It can also be used to predispose a population to being sickly…like a bioweapon.
"Almost everything you see which is not made of metal, wood, stone, glass, wool or cotton is made from petroleum. Even products made from these natural materials tend to be supplemented with petroleum."
The fact that you don’t have many like let’s me know we are are doom. May the real God have mercy on us
Ginkgo BioWorks is leading the way towards a sustainable Synthetic Biology future.
@@zelenajabuka8028 I hope so. This world needs them more than ever. They are working on potentially stopping the next outbreak and whatever other outbreak there will be in the future. So yes we Need them to succeed, for humanity's sake.
Synthetic bio😢 , I am a bioscience/life science, undergrad (with a triple major , zoology , botany and chemistry) , where should I go biotech, bioinformatics, environmental science,immunology every Ted talk convinces me from one to another
Me too
But have a clear goal in mind. Follow one hate none. U have to sacrifice 99 things to get one thing.
How old are you? you seem young, smart, but young. Talk with your family and talk with other people who are interested in your same line, use forums etc, but base your choices and conclusions on how much relativity it has to what you want to change in your community (where ever you want to end up)
informatics
You can go anywhere! That's the beauty of a biophysics or biology degree. SynBio is my dream too 😍
I hope it will work, will improve our next generation living standard....
Wonderful insights. Thank you.
The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be how to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world 🌍. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks gold, silver and digital currencies
Even with the current dip in the market I'm still glad I can smile 😊 back at my portfolio of $19750 built from my weekly trading with Mrs Olivia.
Mrs Olivia is the strategic trader that manager my account. She's really a professional i earn my first investing profit of €55k and she does not fail.
Extraordinary is the right word to describe Mrs Olivia Harlow, she's experience as a trader and her signals are so accurate have profited over $65,000 from last month of working with her.
I invest with Mrs Olivia too, she understands every beginners intention and fix you to a trading plan that matches your capacity.
I appreciate the opportunity, I just sent her a message and she responded nicely..
Neri Oxman's practice being presented as a new field
i've chosen to study the field as soon as i heard ''novel nucleotides, XNA instead of DNA''
Its like bacon man. Sounds delicious, is delicious, cant help but feel like its not good for ya.
Antihumanitarian companies from pharmaceuticals to plastics and gasoline producers gonna hate this.
Synthetic Biology and Transhumanism is the way.
can you make gold?
I had the same question 😂
Synthetic gold has already been a thing for awhile. It isn't worth making though.
Where we are going you will be more worried about dodging it.
gold is inorganic thing , these technologies can only transfer organic into another organic products ....
How it COULD not how it will.
Oh it will. It already is.
This is very old news.
They are transforming the human...again.
Again.
