Step into the future of Biology and discover how Synthetic Biology is transforming the way we approach Healthcare, Agriculture, Environmental Sustainability, and Biotechnology Innovation.
What is Synthetic Biology?
Synthetic Biology is a rapidly evolving field that combines Biology, Engineering, Genetics, and Computational Design to construct new biological systems or redesign existing ones for useful purposes. Evolving from genetic engineering and systems biology, synthetic biology now uses tools like CRISPR, Genetic Logic Gates, DNA Synthesis, and Automated Gene Circuit Design to build custom organisms, therapeutic pathways, and smart biological devices.
Core Principles & Techniques Include:
* Modular design of DNA and biological parts
* Standardized biological components (BioBricks)
* Logic gate-based gene circuits (AND, OR, NOT)
* CRISPR-Cas genome editing
* Computational modeling and AI-assisted design
Applications Span Across:
* Healthcare: Gene therapies, engineered probiotics, cancer biosensors
* Agriculture: Pest-resistant crops, biofertilizers, synthetic symbiosis
* Environment: Plastic-degrading microbes, heavy metal biosensors
* Industrial Biotech: Biofuels, synthetic enzymes, biomaterials
This course is designed for:
* Undergraduates & graduates in Biotech, Biomedical Science, Molecular Biology
* Those preparing for postgraduate research or final-year projects
* Students passionate about merging Biology + Engineering + Computation
* Anyone curious about career paths in synthetic biology
**Don’t miss this opportunity to future-proof your scientific journey!

Introduction to Synthetic Biology පාඨමාලාවෙන් Synthetic Biology ගැන මුලික දැනුමක් ලබාගන්න පුළුවන්. මෙම ක්ෂේත්රය ජීව විද්යාව, ඉංජිනේරු විද්යාව සහ ගණිත විද්යාව එක්කරමින් නවීන පර්යේෂණ සහ නිර්මාණ සිදු කරන විශේෂ ක්ෂේත්රයක්. මෙහිදී දින අටක දී, සිසුන්ට Synthetic Biology වල මූලික කරුණු, මෙවලම් සහ පරිසරය, කෘෂිකර්මය, සෞඛ්ය සේවා වැනි ක්ෂේත්රවල අයදුම් පිළිබඳ දැනුම ලබාදේ.
Genetic Circuits නිර්මාණය කරන ආකාරය සහ CelloCAD, Benchling වැනි ගණිතමය මෙවලම් භාවිතා කරමින්, සිසුන්ට න්යායත්මක හා ප්රායෝගික අත්දැකීම් ලබාගත හැක. පාඨමාලාව අවසානයේ, Capstone Design Workshop එකක් හරහා සිසුන්ට දේශීය හෝ ලෝකීය ගැටලුවකට Synthetic Biology විසඳුමක් සැලසුම් කිරීමට අවස්ථාව ලබා දෙයි.
