Integrating Synthetic Biology and Single Molecule Biophysics: A Cross-Disciplinary Workshop for Advancing Biotechnological Applications

Synthetic biology aims to develop new ways of making fuel, food and fabrics with a low carbon footprint. This workshop will connect experts from Korea, Japan and the UK to explore the use of advanced single molecule techniques to characterise and predict the performance of synthetic genetic circuits – opening the way to more eco-friendly products.

  • Workshop Report

Join us at this cross-disciplinary workshop where the power of synthetic biology meets the precision of single-molecule biophysics. This unique event sparks discussions and fosters collaboration, unlocking a synergistic force for advancing both fields.

This three-day workshop will bring together leading scientists from synthetic biology and single-molecule biophysics, creating a dynamic platform to build synergies by sharing cutting-edge knowledge, exploring novel methodologies. We will delve into the power of synthetic biology, with a special focus on stochastic processes and biological heterogeneity. They will then explore the intricate world of single-molecule biophysics, where individual molecules are observed and manipulated to reveal fundamental biological processes.

The workshop will be hosted at the University of Surrey located in Guildford, a historic and vibrant county town of Surrey.
