Synthetic Cellular Memory - Will DeLoache

Synthetic cellular memory refers to the engineering of living organisms to produce a protracted response to a transient stimulus. The construction of such rationally designed memory mechanisms in living organisms promises a more thorough understanding of naturally occurring gene networks. In the future, modular cellular memory networks will likely be a key component of many synthetic biological designs, ranging from biocomputing to engineered cell differentiation.

Medical Applications of Synthetic Biology - Samantha Simpson

Medical applications of synthetic biology range from treating cancer, creating low-cost medication, protecting from DNA damage, and using biological vectors as vaccines. My paper explores these current collaborations between medicine and synthetic biology, and the challenges and benefits to come in the future.
