Synthetic biology advances to generate $30B opportunity for Australia
The Northern Rivers Times, Other, 06/03/2024
Synthetic biology could underpin an industry worth up to $30 billion per year and create over 50,000 new jobs by 2040, according to a new report by Australia’s national science agency, CSIRO, and Main Sequence Ventures. Synthetic biology, or engineering biology, is a transformative and interdisciplinary field of science that applies engineering workflows and sophisticated genetic technologies to rapidly design and create new solutions from the building blocks of life.
