  • Chapter
Synthetische Biologie

Part of the book series: acatech DISKUSSION ((ACATECHDISK))

Zusammenfassung

Die Synthetische Biologie ist eine hochdynamische neue Disziplin, die sich in den Natur-und Ingenieurwissenschaften rasch entfaltet. Die Auswirkungen der Synthetischen Biologie beschränken sich nicht allein auf die Forschung und die Arbeitswelt in den Labors, denn sie könnte künftig in vielen gesellschaftlichen Bereichen relevant werden. Forscher aus der Synthetischen Biologie können unter anderem künstliche Moleküle nutzen, um emergente Phänomene aus der Natur nachzuahmen. Ihr Ziel ist es, künstliches Leben zu erschaffen oder biologischen Bausteine zu entwickeln, die sich so zusammensetzen lassen, dass komplexe Systeme entstehen - und zwar mit völlig neuartigen Funktionen, wie sie in der Natur nicht vorkommen.1
