2021 Synthetic Biology: Engineering, Evolution & Design (SEED)

SEED 2021 focused on advances in science, technology, applications, and related investments in the field of synthetic biology.

The conference looks at every step — from the synbio bench to society, including ethics, regulations, commercialization, education, and the science itself.
