Synthetic biology is a maturing field at the confluence of the biosciences, physical sciences, information technology, and engineering and is rapidly beginning to demonstrate valuable solutions to some of our most pressing global challenges in healthcare, agriculture, sustainability and the environment.

SBUK 2023 will bring the synthetic and engineering biology communities together in Bristol, a city with a rich and long-standing history in engineering and a vibrant research community in synthetic biology, to share recent scientific advancements across the field. Conference themes will include biomolecular design and engineering; cell and system-level design; synthetic and minimal cells; data-centric bioengineering, and applications across industry.

The diverse and inclusive programme will include opportunities for networking, and an emphasis will be placed on ensuring the event offers early career researchers with the vital opportunities needed to build their wider research networks with leading experts in the field, as well as gain insights into careers in industry, SMEs, policy, academia and innovation delivery.

Oral communication slots are available at this meeting. All attendees, particularly researchers in the early stages of their career, are invited to submit a poster abstract for consideration as an oral communication. Abstract submission is now closed. 

Following the conclusion of the conference on Tuesday 7 November, there is an evening networking event for women in Synthetic Biology. This will take place at The Forge from 18:00 - 21:00. For further information and to register, please click here.
