Life is what you make it
The ‘reading’ of DNA is a solved technological problem but what about ‘writing’ DNA? Could we program or reprogram biological systems and even generate new life forms? Paul Freemont explores how the powerful fusion of molecular biology, design and engineering could lead to a ‘Biotechnological Revolution’ and considers the implications of the extraordinary field of synthetic biology.

Seeing things in a different light: How X-ray crystallography revealed the structure of everything
From the first observations and interpretations of the scattering of X-rays by salt crystals at the start of the 20th century, structural biologist Stephen Curry will trace the development of a technique that has uncovered not only the atomic structure of the material world but also the molecular basis of life and death.

Cosy Science presents: Origins of the nucleus- the mothership of our genome
The cell nucleus is the ‘mothership’ that encloses, tethers, protects and supports the human genome. How did this complex, elegant and dynamic architecture evolve? We will ‘paint a picture’ of nuclear structure, and talk about how a few simple proteins set our single-celled ancestors on an amazing evolutionary journey.

Wyss Institute: Planes, Trains, Automobiles...and Cells?
Two areas that have always interested Phil LeDuc are the mechanics of machines and the wonders of nature. His interest in mechanics, first beginning as a youth taking apart machines like lawn mowers, has intersected with his fascination with nature at the cellular and molecular levels. Here he will present how his lab has been merging mechanical engineering with biology. His lab approaches this intersection by envisioning cells and molecules as “systems” that can be investigated with some of the same fundamental approaches used on machines such as planes, trains, and automobiles looking for unifying principles. The bio...
