Disruptive Synthetic Biology Innovations to Drive Health, Food, Sustainable Energy, and Industrial Decarbonization Food, Sustainable Energy and Industrial Decarbonization. SYNTHBIOMICS

Project information

The SYNTHBIOMICS project seeks to make visible the potential of Synthetic Biology in key areas for the economic development of Navarra. Synthetic biology combines principles of biology, chemistry, engineering and computation to create tools and techniques that allow manipulating and reprogramming living organisms to perform specific tasks. 

SYNTHBIOMICS proposes the development and implementation of a biotechnological strategy with three main lines of action: the design and synthesis of a synthetic library of nanobodies, the generation of biosensors for the detection of contaminants in food and the fixation of C1 compounds for the production of chemical intermediates that can be converted into advanced fuels and other bioproducts.
