About the Synthetic Biology Session
Synthetic Biology is a rapidly growing field of scientific research and engineering, which combines the principles of engineering and biology to design and construct new biological systems and pathways. Synthetic Biology is used to design and build novel biological systems, such as DNA, protein, enzymes and cells, and to engineer existing biological systems to produce desired products or functions. By designing and constructing new biological systems, Synthetic Biology has the potential to revolutionize fields such as healthcare, agriculture, energy production, environmental protection and manufacturing. The goal of Synthetic Biology is to design and construct biological systems that can perform specific tasks, such as producing specific drugs, biofuels and other bioproducts. By engineering biological systems, synthetic biologists can also alter existing biological systems to improve their efficiency and performance. Synthetic Biology holds great potential for solving many of the world’s most pressing problems, and is an exciting and rapidly growing field of research.

Synthetic Biology Conference 2027 — FAQs
What is the Synthetic Biology track at GPB 2027?
The Synthetic Biology track is a dedicated stream within GPB 2027 covering the latest research, clinical innovation, and best practice in Synthetic Biology. It brings together researchers, educators, and practitioners for oral presentations, posters, and discussion.
Who should attend the Synthetic Biology sessions?
Plant scientists, breeders, biotechnologists, agronomists, doctoral students, and research leaders with an interest in Synthetic Biology are all welcome — whether presenting or attending.
Can I present my research in the Synthetic Biology track?
Yes. Submit an abstract for oral or poster presentation. All submissions are peer-reviewed by the scientific committee; accepted abstracts appear in the indexed proceedings.
Is virtual attendance available for Synthetic Biology sessions?
Yes. GPB 2027 is a hybrid conference — attend the Synthetic Biology track in person in Singapore or join live online, with on-demand access afterward.
