Enrique opens the debate. Could you think about other extreme scenarios related to de-extinction? #synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

Don't miss out on the interactive session with artists, policy makers and philosophers. We discuss news on successful extraordinary advances on SynBio #synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

The first case discussed is the 'De-extinction' of the dire wolf https://t.co/r8mXk2jDv0

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

When is an organism alive and when is it dead? Can we call agriculture as such if we use biofermentors? If microbes are the future for food, did we close the loop? Who is eating who? All this and more with the philosopher Julia Rijssenbeek from @WUR #synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

Our event today ' Out of the ordinary: Thinking outside of the Toolbox' is only possible thanks to our sponsors VLAG, the Center of Living Technologies and the Open Science Initiative from NWO #synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

The last session 'Pandora's Toolbox' is really out of the ordinary. We open with Laura Elidedt Rodriguez, an artist in residence that explores bioart with us #synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

It's been a pleasure to have @florian_haensel from @gasb_synbio and Sonia Mecacci from @EUSynBioS showing us how much territory SynBio covers and the initiatives where they are involved, with not only academia but also education, outreach for general audience, politics and more!

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

For the last industry talk, we have Luca Mantovanelli presenting PortalBiotech and their technology to sequence small peptides using nanopore sequencing #synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

Nicolò Baldi from Cradle shows us how to use AI models to predict mutations to optimize proteins
#synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

We open the industry session with Charles Williams from LenioBio.

"Disruption requires a minimum of two innovations, technology as well as business model"

#synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

We close the morning session with Josiah Passmore shifting the topic to optogenetics. What if we could control cells like tiny robots?

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

Next we have @SebWenk with the Evolution-assisted engineering of formate assimilation in Escherichia coli #synbionl2025

[SynBioNL @SynBio_NL]

We start our morning session with Margarita Bernal Cabas and the development of a Modular Workflow to Engineer Xantobacter for Recombinant Food Protein Production from Air and Renewable Energy
