In this episode, I talk to Dr Rennos Fragkoudis, Manager of the Edinburgh Genome Foundry - a research facility specialised in the assembly of DNA constructs. These are artificially constructed fragments of DNA that can be 'transplanted' into a target cell or tissue. These constructs contain a gene sequence of interest that can then be expressed in the host. Rennos explains how he, his team and some very impressive robots are involved in a diverse range of research projects from producing viral vectors for gene therapy to yeast based production of high value chemicals for healthcare products…

Description

The UK Centre for Mammalian Synthetic Biology embraces a vibrant community of research groups from across the University of Edinburgh. From biological sciences and medicine to engineering and social & political sciences.
Synthetic biology is being applied to gain insight into human and animal health and disease and to transform medicine and healthcare.
In this podcast series, we chat to a number of our researchers and discuss how their work is addressing a diversity of scientific questions with wide ranging impacts for society and industry.
