Synthetic Biology: The Next Biotech Revolution Is Brewing

Published on Thursday, 26 March 2009 13:00 from ScienceDaily

But further advances in this emerging field are likely to create significant challenges for US government oversight, according to a new report. Synthetic biology promises major advances in areas such as biofuels, specialty chemicals, and agriculture and drug products.
