Goals for Today
1. Convey the art of the possible—today
2. Discuss what’ll be possible in 2-10 years
3. Discuss why and when synthetic biology should be considered as a tool in the materials science and manufacturing toolbox
4. Discuss how to achieve more cross-pollination between SynBio and MatSci communities

…contributing directly to advent of ‘synthetic biology’
• The application of engineering principles towards the construction of novel biological systems
• Integration of biological and chemical engineering, bioinformatics, computation, metabolic engineering, systems and developmental biology
• Distillation of biology into ‘parts’, ‘circuits’, systems

How does this help?
1. Choose right organism for the job (i.e., ‘chassis’)2. Build ‘bottom up’ or ‘top down’3. Tune timing and thus hierarchy4. Mix/Match to optimize:
• bio from diverse systems• chem + bio• non-canonical amino acids, nucleotides
5. Design-Build-Test-Learn

What does biology bring to the table?
• Novel chemistries, ‘R’ groups• Chiralities• Templating• Self-assembly
• Timing• Scaling• Purification• ‘Green’ synthesis
• Multifunctionality• Defect tolerance

In addition, large gains could be made by increasing dialogue between the communities
Bio to Materials Science• Standardization of data collection and
management• High throughput analysis, characterization• Opening up the palette of novel chemistries
Materials Science to Bio• Understanding of ‘when and why bio’? • Understanding tolerances for impurities
