US Competitiveness in Synthetic Biology [PDF]
Health Security, 2015 Synthetic biology is an emerging technical field that aims to make biology easier to engineer; the field has applications in strategically important sectors for the US economy. While the United States currently leads in synthetic biology R&D, other nations are heavily investing in order to boost their economies, which will inevitably diminish the US ...

Recent Progress in European Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products and Beyond
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2018 Cell- and gene-based therapies form one of the pillars of regenerative medicine. They have the potential to transform quality of life and improve the health status of patients with genetic and cellular defects, including genetic diseases ...

Synthesizing a novel genetic sequential logic circuit: a push‐on push‐off switch
Molecular Systems Biology, 2010 Design and synthesis of basic functional circuits are the fundamental tasks of synthetic biologists. Before it is possible to engineer higher‐order genetic networks that can perform complex functions, a toolkit of basic devices must be developed.

The Field of Cell Competition Comes of Age: Semantics and Technological Synergy
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Stem cells experience many selective pressures which shape their cellular populations, potentially pushing them to skew towards dominance of a few break-through clones. An evolutionarily conserved answer to curb these aberrant selective pressures is cell

Statistical Methods for Estimating Complexity from Competition Experiments between Two Populations [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, Volume 264, Issue 3, 7 June 2010,
Pages 1043-1046, 2013 Often a screening or selection experiment targets a cell or tissue, which presents many possible molecular targets and identifies a correspondingly large number of ligands. We describe a statistical method to extract an estimate of the complexity or richness of the set of molecular targets from competition experiments between distinguishable ligands ...

Ecological and genetic effects of introduced species on their native competitors [PDF]
Theoretical Population Biology 84 (2013): 25-35, 2012 Species introductions to new habitats can cause a decline in the population size of competing native species and consequently also in their genetic diversity. We are interested in why these adverse effects are weak in some cases whereas in others the native species declines to the point of extinction.

Competition-based screening helps to secure the evolutionary stability of a defensive microbiome
BMC Biology, 2021 Background The cuticular microbiomes of Acromyrmex leaf-cutting ants pose a conundrum in microbiome biology because they are freely colonisable, and yet the prevalence of the vertically transmitted bacteria Pseudonocardia, which contributes to the ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Kin selection on one hand, and gamete interactions in post-ejaculatory sexual selection on the other are two major research themes that have risen to prominence over the past half century and have simultaneously developed into central fields of research ...
