Artificial intelligence and machine learning will be the keys to unraveling how the human immune system prevents and controls disease
The biggest synthetic genome so far has been made, with a smaller set of amino-acid-encoding codons than usual 鈥� raising the prospect of encoding proteins that contain unnatural amino-acid residues.
By creating a new genome, scientists could create organisms tailored to produce desirable compounds
Critics, however, argue that this effort is flawed from the beginning
