- Implement a development program consisting of i) Design & Engineering, ii) DNA Assembly and Protein Production, and iii) Testing to accumulate a toolbox of synthetic parts, cell lines, and complete signaling circuits.
- Develop tools for our signaling toolbox with broad combinatorial potential applicable for different types of signaling cascades.
- Develop whole synthetic signaling pathways, which are applicable as screening platforms for new medicines, particularly Cancer and Diabetes.
- Develop synthetic signaling cascades, which are transferrable into human cells for the treatment of specific diseases.
- Develop human signaling pathways, which are applicable as screening platforms for creating new Flavour, Fragrance and Nutritional ingredients.
- Generate technologies and intellectual property that are widely disseminated to the broader European SME and large industry community.
- Identify societal perceptions and concerns about synthetic biology in Europe to ensure long-term impact and sustainability of this research.
