👉 Biol engineering, also known as synthetic biology, is an interdisciplinary field that combines biology with engineering principles to design and construct new biological parts, devices, and systems, or to redesign existing natural biological systems for useful purposes. This involves manipulating genetic material, cellular processes, and metabolic pathways to create organisms or biological components that can perform specific tasks, such as producing biofuels, developing new medicines, or cleaning up environmental pollutants. By using tools like CRISPR-Cas9 for precise gene editing and genetic circuits for controlling cellular functions, biol engineers can program living cells to act as sophisticated machines, opening up a wide range of applications from healthcare and agriculture to energy and environmental sustainability.
