stemdriven
Stemdriven is a term that refers to the process of generating artificial or synthetic biological systems and their components, such as genes, proteins, and metabolic pathways, from foundational principles and design considerations. The goal is to create novel biological functions or optimize existing ones for specific applications. This approach draws heavily from engineering methodologies, applying systematic design, construction, and testing cycles to biological systems.
The core idea behind stemdriven design is to move beyond merely observing and understanding natural biological
Applications of stemdriven design are diverse and span multiple fields. In medicine, it can be used to
