INFOGRAPHIC: THE COST OF REGULATING BIOTECHNOLOGY AND GENETICALLY-ENGINEERED FOOD

This spring, legislators in more than 20 U.S. states will consider proposals to mandate special labeling of genetically-engineered (GE) foods, but there is a deep misunderstanding about what genetic engineering means, and the safety and regulation of genetically-engineered food.

Designing Genetic Circuit

Infographic | April 13, 2020

Near the turn of the millennium, James Collins and Stanislas Leibler independently undertook rather similar projects: design what would become synthetic biology’s seminal genetic circuits. And they came up with strikingly similar action plans—use E. coli to pair promoters with repressors that control one another’s behavior.

RNA sequencing libraries
