Synthetic life, what for and what future?
Ludus Vitalis 19 (36):213-215 (2011)
Abstract
This text answers the question, posed by the editor, on the philosophical and social issues resulting from the synthetic assembly of a modified bacterial genome that was introduced in an existing bacterial species (M.mycoides)and so it was claimed to represent the first ever kind of synthetic life produced by human manipulation.Author's Profile
