(4gb) Synthetic Biology Mediated Applications of Electrochemical Biosensor and the Formation of Artificial Organelle in Living System

Authors 

Dai, Y. - Presenter, Duke University
Synthetic biology involves reconstituting nature’s biological design to perform new capabilities, innovating medicine and biotechnology. In this presentation, I will first introduce my doctoral works on interfacing electrochemistry with synthetic gene circuit design, providing new analytical chemistry concepts enabling diverse sensing applications. I will further introduce my postdoctoral works on de novo design of synthetic biomolecular condensates in living cells through protein engineering, delivering a new paradigm for applications of orthogonal biological controls on endogenous systems.
