Manipulating the genetic material of organisms to introduce, remove, or modify specific genes. This enables the production of desired proteins, modification of metabolic pathways, and creation of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) for various applications.
Designing and constructing biological systems with novel functions not found in nature. This involves assembling standardized genetic parts, circuits, and modules to create biological "machines" for tasks such as biosynthesis, sensing, and computation.
Developing and optimising processes for the large-scale production of biomolecules, pharmaceuticals, biofuels, and other bioproducts. This includes designing bioreactors, optimising fermentation conditions, and implementing downstream purification techniques.
Creating functional tissues and organs by combining cells, biomaterials, and bioactive molecules. Tissue engineers aim to regenerate damaged tissues, develop organ replacements, and model disease processes for drug discovery and testing.
Applying engineering principles to solve biomedical problems, such as designing medical devices, diagnostics, imaging technologies, and prosthetics. This field encompasses a wide range of disciplines, including biomechanics, biomaterials, medical imaging, and neural engineering.
