Synthbiomics Proyect

The SYNTHBIOMICS Project aims to highlight the potential of Synthetic Biology in key areas for Navarra’s economic development. Synthetic biology combines principles from biology, chemistry, engineering and computing to create tools and techniques that enable the manipulation and reprogramming of living organisms so they can perform specific tasks.

SYNTHBIOMICS proposes the development and implementation of a biotechnology strategy with three fundamental lines of action: the design and synthesis of a synthetic nanobody library, the generation of biosensors for detecting contaminants in food, and the fixation of C1 compounds for the production of chemical intermediates that can be converted into advanced fuels and other bioproducts.
