May 2006 correspondance between James Randerson and Drew Endy
(2006-06-15)
I am a science journalist with the Guardian newspaper in London. We are a national daily paper. I am hoping to put together an investigative piece on how easy (or not) it would be for a would-be terrorist to put together ...
In the valley of the shadow of death
(2006-11-22)
During the 20th century, advances in biological understanding sparked a global
revolution in biological capability, or RBC. Since that time, the revolution has proceeded
in a Moore's-law-like fashion for many decades. ...
Power and responsibility
(2006-11-21)
Peter Parker and Uncle Ben are on my mind. The reason is that is that a month ago I
was jumped by Craig Venter. There were TV cameras around. The live audience was an
interesting, edgy mix, on the interface between ...
A Practical Perspective on DNA Synthesis and Biological Security (12/4/2006 Draft)
(2006-12-12)
Few developments have leapfrogged over predecessor technology as quickly and extensively as synthetic
biology. Based on cutting-edge DNA synthesis technology, synthetic biology has already fueled an
expansion of ...
GeneJax: A Prototype CAD tool in support of Genome Refactoring
(2006-05-26)
Refactoring is a technique used by computer scientists for improving program design. The Endy Laboratory has adapted this process to make the genomes of biological organisms more amenable to human understanding and design ...
Definitions and Measures of Performance for Standard Biological Parts
(2006-03-16)
We are working to enable the engineering of integrated biological systems. Specifically, we would like to be able to build systems using standard parts that, when combined, have reliable and predictable behavior. Here, ...

A New Biobrick Assembly Strategy Designed for Facile Protein Engineering
(2006-04-20)
The existing biobrick assembly technique[1] provides a straightforward
way to combine standardized biological components, termed biobricks.
This system, however, is limited in that each protein-encoding biobrick
must ...
