Agenda for Synthetic Biology Congress

Oxford Global is proud to present the latest instalment in our Genomics Series. Across two streams and exclusive networking breaks, the Synthetic Biology Congress​ brings together over 200 senior delegates to discuss the latest foundational tool developments and therapeutic applications of synthetic biology.

 

Join us on the 8th-9th November 2018 in London, UK to meet and hear from some of the most distinguished experts in the field. Our speakers will address the critical topics such as design and control of living cells, as well as new synthetic biology platforms to diagnose and treat infections. These talks will serve as springboards for discussion during our extensive networking breaks.

 

Co-located with our highly anticipated 4th Annual Genome Editing Congress, this event provides a unique opportunity to learn from and network with leaders in genomics community.

 

Key Presentations Include:

 

Engineering and Controlling Cells

 

• Automated Design of RNA Circuits in Living Cells | Alfonso Jaramillo, Professor of Synthetic Biology, University of Warwick
• Cybergenetics: Theory and Design of Biomolecular Control Systems | Mustafa Khammash, Professor, ETH Zurich

 

Diagnosing and Treating Infections

 

• 3D Printing of Engineered Biofilms | Anne Meyer, Associate Professor, Delft University of Rochester
• Synthetic Biology-Enabled New Generation Diagnostics and Therapeutics | Baojun Wang, Group Leader and Chancellor's Fellow in Synthetic Biology, University of Edinburgh

Complimentary Live Webinar

A Standard-Enabled Workflow for Synthetic Biology

 

Chris Myers, Professor, University of Utah

Monday 24^th September | 3.30pm BST

 

The field of synthetic biology requires standardisation and shared data standards in order to fulfill its exciting potential. This webinar with Chris Myers offers important insights into the development and expansion of the Synthetic Biology Open Language, a platform enabling the exchange of information within a synthetic biology workflow.

 

This webinar will cover

 

• SBOL features: SynBioHub (a design repository), SBOLDesigner (a sequence editor) and iBioSim (a modelling tool).

 

Key benefits to attending

 

• Learn about the features and advantages of adopting SBOL for your institution.
• Find out how to implement this workflow to produce complete records of genetic design, facilitating reproducibility and reuse.
