Seminar Series
Wednesday, April 13, 2005, 3:00pm
(Love Auditorium – B101 Levine Science Research Center)

George Church, PhD
Professor of Genetics, Harvard Medical School,

MIT-Harvard DOE Genomes to Life Center

"Synthetic Biology and Personal Genome/Transcriptome Sequencing"

Increasingly medicine, epidemiology, forensics, history, ecology, 
chemistry, manufacturing, and agriculture benefit from accurate and 
inexpensive analysis and synthesis of nucleic acids.  This talk will 
explore technological, computational, and societal aspects of the 
exponential improvements in these capabilities.  Emphasis will be on (1) 
analysis using polymerase clones ("plones") for RNA quantitation and 
comparative genomics and (2) synthesis using 
photoprogramable-DNA-chips,error correction technologies, and homologous 
recombination.
