Synthetic cells that look just like natural cells but are chemically reversed could outcompete other living organisms − with ...

This engineered genome will help experts tailor organisms to fit the needs of their ever-changing environments.

Researchers have made a breakthrough in the development of 'life-like' synthetic materials which are able to move by themselves like worms. Scientists have been investigating a new class of materials ...

Scientists have finally created synthetic life in a lab by constructing a synthetic yeast for the first time in history.

We often discuss cybernetic, genetic engineering, artificial intelligence, and hybrids of them, but what truly is synthetic life? And what is it like?

After more than a decade of work, researchers have reached a major milestone in their efforts to re-engineer life in the lab, ...

Yale researchers have created "Ochre," a genomically recoded organism that enables the production of synthetic proteins with ...

Gear-obsessed editors choose every product we review. We may earn commission if you buy from a link. Why Trust Us? For the first time ever, a synthetic eukaryotic genome has been created.

This important study demonstrates the potential of synthetic gene circuits to detect and target aberrant RAS activity in cancer cell lines. The circuit design is novel and the evidence supporting the ...
