The next software revolution: programming biological cells | Sara-Jane Dunn

Fri, 01 Nov 2019

Description

The cells in your body are like computer software: they’re “programmed” to carry out specific functions at specific times. If we can better understand this process, we could unlock the ability to reprogram cells ourselves, says computational biologist Sara-Jane Dunn. In a talk from the cutting-edge of science, she explains how her team is studying embryonic stem cells to gain a new understanding of the biological programs that power life -- and develop “living software” that could transform medicine, agriculture and energy.
