About
The Global Alliance of SynBio Associations (SynBio Alliance) started in 2020 with the mission to connect associations and synbio-related organizations and recognize their contributions to the advancement of synthetic biology. The Alliance hosted the 2nd SynBio United event this year and connected over 15 synthetic biology associations and organizations from around the world.
SynBio United - Growing Together: Nurturing & Maintaining SynBio Associations. In 2023, the gathering focused on ‘successfully maintaining SynBio Associations’
