About this ebook

What Is Synthetic Genomics

To manufacture new DNA or complete lifeforms, synthetic genomics, a relatively young subfield of synthetic biology, employs techniques such as genetic alteration on already-existent life forms or artificial gene synthesis. These techniques may be used to create new DNA.
