Cellular innovation by rational design and evolution

Hosted by the Bristol BioDesign Institute

Zoom webinar link: https://bristol-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/94581395098
Slido meeting number: #940848

Mo will describe his group's efforts to develop synthetic biology frameworks to study how eukaryotic cells control gene expression and generate extraordinary levels of phenotypic variation, and ultimately use this knowledge to create programmable cellular therapies to address the most pressing human diseases. He will also describe complementary efforts to develop technologies that can harness evolution in the laboratory at unprecedented scale. He will share how they are applying these technologies to study how biological circuit design is shaped by evolutionary constraints, and to rapidly generate new and improved biomolecules to discover new classes of protein-based therapeutics.
