Discover how 21st century scientists are creating life at the Science Museum's Dana Centre

dice_helix.jpgHow is biology changing in the 21st Century? Discuss this and more at a special event at the Dana Centre.

Craig Venter's announcement of the first man-made genome this year heralded a new era for biology. So is synthetic life 'real'? How do we define 'life' anyway?

Consider the potentials and pitfalls of synthetic life with those creating it.

This event is taking place on Wednesday May 28th from 9pm to 8.30pm. The event is free but you do need to reserve a place in advance, to do so email tickets@danacentre.org.uk or call 020 7942 4040. Please note, only those over the age of 18 years old may attend.
