George Sherman Union at Boston University, Boston, MA, USA
The International Mammalian Synthetic Biology Workshop (mSBW) brings together leaders in synthetic biology with experts from other relevant fields to highlight and inspire cutting-edge synthetic biology research, emphasizing both basic and applied science. The mSBW series has grown to become a signature worldwide event exploring the latest advances and their applications in human health and beyond.
Important Deadlines:
Extended Abstract Submission: April 24, 2024
Early Bird Registration: June 28, 2024
mSBW brings together researchers across the globe to highlight the highest caliber research in mammalian synthetic biology. The warm and vibrant community provides a fantastic environment for researchers across stages to network. It’s my favorite meeting!

mSBW is the best conference to hear about new research, new approaches, and new ideas in mammalian synthetic biology. It’s also a great place to meet new colleagues and collaborators.
- This is the only meeting specifically dedicated to mammalian synthetic biology and its applications
- Benefit from creative input from colleagues working in allied fields
- Develop new collaborations and build relationships for current and future projects
- Identify trends that might influence your current research
Session Topics
- Synthetic Gene Regulation Approaches Synthetic biology approaches to understand and control gene expression. These include regulation of chromatin, transcription, RNA processing, and protein production.
- Synthetic Biology for Therapeutics New designs and engineering of biomolecular circuits for therapeutic applications and clinical translation.
- Developmental, Multicellular, and Regenerative Systems Novel approaches to programming cell fate, and engineering multicellular communities for understanding cell-fate transitions including in development and cancer.
- Foundational Technologies Tools to build the next generation of synthetic systems from molecules to cells.
- Scalable Technologies and Artificial Intelligence High-throughput measurements of DNA, RNA and protein functions and computational approaches to large-scale synthetic biology.
- Synthetic Biology for Cancer As specific mutations induce oncogenesis, synthetic biology tools can help understand the cascade of molecular events as cells transition into cancers.
