Consortium for the Synthetic Biology Project

The Consortium for the Synthetic Biology Project is an organization that studies and promotes responsible development of synthetic biology—an area where scientists design and build new biological parts, systems, or organisms. Its goal is to provide policymakers, industry leaders, and the public with balanced information and guidance on the benefits, risks, and ethical considerations of this innovative technology. By fostering collaboration and understanding, the project aims to ensure synthetic biology advances safely and beneficially for society, addressing scientific, environmental, and security challenges.
