Synthetic Biology & Society

Whether it's agriculture, healthcare, the environment or the economy, synthetic biology has an increasingly important role to play! Visit our forum and join in the discussions!

Our Forum

That's what she said...

Promoter maps down below! These are the results of 100s of responses from the UBC community-undergrads, grad students and faculty from various disciplines-on what they think synthetic biology is.

Synthetic whaa...?

Art disturbs, science reassures ~Georges Braque

What can generate more inspiration or discussion than art? And what is not art? Come take a look. Better yet, contribute!

Be disturbed!

Promoter Maps

We collected hundreds of definitions of synthetic biology from the UBC community. These definitions were sorted by field/occupation as well as level of education in order to synthesize these promoter maps. Each promoter map consists of words arranged from highest to lowest frequency (with implemented cut-off points), representing the prevalent ideas in our community's awareness of synthetic biology!
