International Synthetic Biology Workshop
The Sense-Compute-Response Paradigm
The workshop aims to highlight recent developments and challenges in the field of synthetic biology, with a particular focus on the sense-compute-response paradigm. With this, we provide an interdisciplinary platform for discussion, exchange of views, and the development of future collaborations in our field.
