Bottlenecks and opportunities for synthetic biology biosafety standards
Pei Lei, Michele S. Garfinkel, Markus Schmidt
Abstract
The lack of innovative standards for biosafety in synthetic biology is an unresolved policy gap that limits many potential applications in synthetic biology. We argue that a massive support for standardization in biosafety is required for synthetic biology to flourish.
