Interview
We want to welcome Dr. Joachim Bolt, who put a special focus of his research to synthetic biology regarding ethical and philosophical as well as security and safety facets. Thank you very much for taking the time to answer some questions.
Which are your personal concerns about safety in synthetic biology? To what extent have scientists to think about biosafety?
To answer this in detail we will have to wait into which direction research develops and which fields of application are exploited. But broadly speaking the high intrusion depth of synthetic biology into the genomes of organisms poses new safety questions.
