Next-Generation Synthetic Biology (5th edition)
A VIB Tools and Technologies conference
Keep me postedAdd to calendarFollowing the success of the past four editions of the VIB conference Genome Engineering and Synthetic Biology (GESB), we’ve strategically pivoted to focus our upcoming meeting more on synthetic biology. This shift enables us to explore and delve deeper into the dynamic realm of synthetic biology, addressing the latest trends and applications in this rapidly evolving field.
This conference will bring together experts from academia and industry who will present their most recent discoveries during the following sessions:
- Engineering ecosystems
- Engineering pathways
- Engineering synthetic molecules
- Machine learning/AI
- New technologies (DNA/RNA synthesis for therapeutics)
- Tissue engineering
Travel grants
We offer four travel grants to international junior scientists, which will reimburse travel costs up to 400 Euros. The deadline to participate is 17 September 2024.
