The Academic Quarter with Torsten Waldminghaus on April 24
Synthetic biology – chromosomes from the DNA toolbox
2024/04/24 13:15-14:00 by FiF TU Darmstadt
When: April 24, 2024, 1:15 pm | Who: Torsten Waldminghaus (Department of Biology) | Where: Schloss S3|12 Room 251 2nd floor
On the subject:
Synthetic biology is a new discipline in the field of life sciences in which the principles of the engineering sciences are applied to living systems. In our current research, we create synthetic chromosomes from artificial DNA. In this way, we intend to gain a better understanding of natural mechanisms in bacteria on the one hand and on the other to open up new ways for biotechnological applications.
The lunchtime talks, organised in loose sequence every semester, are an opportunity to gain insights into current research areas of colleagues within the university in an informal format. Topics of research policy can also be the subject. The events will be held in hybrid form in room No 251, building S3|12 Schloss.
