  • Sequence Screening 
    Jones, Robert (2007-12-04)
    Currently the vast majority of DNA synthesis is performed by service companies or by in-house central facilities in universities and large companies. The DNA synthesis industry provides researchers with custom DNA at ...
  • Simulation, Models, and Refactoring of Bacteriophage T7 
    Kosuri, Sriram (2007-02-02)
    Our understanding of why biological systems are designed in a particular way would benefit from biophysically-realistic models that can make accurate predictions on the time-evolution of molecular events given arbitrary ...
  • A Standard Parts List for Biological Circuitry 
    Arkin, Adam P; Endy, Drew (DARPA White Paper, 1999-10-07)
    One of the hallmarks of biochemical circuits found in nature is analog, asymmetric, asynchronous design. That is, there is little standardization of parts, e.g. all the promoters have different strengths and kinetics, ...
  • Strategy for Biological Risk & Security 
    Endy, Drew (2003-10)
    Why do biological risks exist? Can we develop and implement a strategy for thoughtfully approaching future biological risks? This short, working report provides an abstract introduction to the problem of biological risk ...
  • SYNTHETIC BIOLOGY: CAUGHT BETWEEN PROPERTY RIGHTS, THE PUBLIC DOMAIN, AND THE COMMONS 
    Rai, Arti; Boyle, James (2006-11-05)
  • Synthetic Genomics: Options for Governance 
    Garfinkel, Michele; Endy, Drew; Epstein, Gerald; Friedman, Robert (2007-10-17)
    Gene and genome synthesis, that is, constructing long stretches of DNA from constituent chemicals, provides scientists with new and unparalleled capabilities both for understanding biology and for using it for beneficial ...
  • Synthetic Viral Genomics: Risks and Benefits for Science and Society 
    Baric, Ralph (2007-12-04)
    Viral disease outbreaks have long inspired fear in human populations. Highly pathogenic infectious disease has shaped world history, primarily by impacting the outcome of wars and other global conflicts and precipitating ...
  • Working Papers for Synthetic Genomics: Risks and Benefits for Science and Society 
    Garfinkel, Michele; Endy, Drew; Epstein, Gerald; Friedman, Robert (2007-12-04)
    The following papers were commissioned for the project Synthetic Genomics: Risks and Benefits for Science and Society. These papers formed the basis of many discussions at project workshops and at a large invitational ...
