Advancing Drug Discovery by Employing Synthetic Biology Tools

This webinar will be hosted offered and live on-demandTuesday, November 14, 2023 1:30 PM Eastern Time Cells react to intracellular and environmental cues through complicated regulative gene networks. Using synthetic biology methods, scientists recreate these natural gene networks to find their functions in disease and to find brand-new drug candidates.In this webinar given you by The Scientists Creative Services Team, Mads Kaern and Gerry Wright will go over the history of crafted gene networks and how synthetic biology can speed up drug discovery.Topics to be covered Exploring the history of artificial gene circuit style over the last 25 years Employing sequencing and synthetic biology platforms to discover brand-new microbial natural products with antibiotic activityMads Kaern, PhDGerard “Gerry” Wright, PhDProfessorDepartment of Biochemistry and Biomedical Sciences McMaster UniversitySponsored by
