Next-Generation Machine Learning for Biological Networks. (2018, neutral): “Synthetic Biology Synthetic biology is focused, in part, on creating synthetic gene networks out of molecular components, and using these circuits to reprogram living cells, endowing them with novel capabilities (Cameron et al., 2014; Elowitz and Leibler, 2000; Gardner et al., 2000; Mukherji and van”
Nonequilibrium physics in biology (2019, background): “Examples include switches, oscillators, communication modules, patterning devices, and others which are often out of equilibrium (Cameron et al., 2014).”
Phage Therapy in the Postantibiotic Era (2019, background): “We have entered the age of “synthetic biology,” where the principles of biology and engineering are conjugated to design, create, or modify existing biological entities to perform tasks they would not naturally do (144).”
