Prof. Dr. Joseph Schacherer (University of Strasbourg) delivered a hybrid seminar for Center SynGen as part of the BZH/ZMBH seminar series from Heidelberg: Dissecting the phenotypic landscape in the pangenomic era.

Hosted by Prof. Dr. Michael Knop

Curious about DNA, aliens, and the future of science?  At Girls’ Day at JGU Mainz, Center SynGen invites young minds to explore how we can design and engineer DNA - from our own to “extraterrestrial” ideas. Our goal: inspire the next generation of scientists and show how creative and exciting research in genomics can be.

Biology is technology! and we’re excited to show it. The Center SynGen at KIT, thanks to Prof. Hilbert and Dr. Stoev, is taking part in this year’s Boys’ Day, giving them hands-on insights into modern biology, where they are still underrepresented.

This Deutsches Ärzteblatt article by Gisela Gross, "Biosecurity: When artificial intelligence delivers novel viruses", features comments from Center SynGen Director Prof. Dr. Michael Knop.

Center SynGen members Dr. Konrad Herbst (SynDNA Lab) and Prof. Dr. Daniel Schindler feature in a LaborJournal blog about DNA cloning and synthetic biology.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Peter Koo (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) presented a hybrid seminar in Heidelberg. His talk was entitled"Interpreting and designing regulatory DNA with deep learning".
