The Field of Synthetic Biology

Bookmark - mosquito population example.

Which regions would see the greatest improvement in the quality of human life as a result of mosquito eradication?

Identify one example from the video of a use of synthetic biology, and explain why it's especially interesting to you. I've included bookmarks for ease of navigation.

Suggest one idea of what synthetic biology might be able to provide to the world - something within the fields described a moment ago, but NOT one of the exact examples given. Use your own head for this one - think about the examples provided, or a problem that you know exists.

Just SPECULATE - it's okay if it's a wild, ridiculous guess that you don't know is possible or not. It's okay if you draw inspiration from movies. What would YOU like to see somebody make or modify from living things?

Justify why a person might hold the opinion that synthetic biology can be very dangerous.

Use evidence from the video (review previous examples & identify a place where things might go wrong.)

Any further comments?
