Researchers Harness New Technologies in Synthetic Biology
Julia Ward (left), a student attending Transylvania University in Lexington, Ky., and Chelsea Marcum, a Ph.D. student attending the University of Dayton, process silk cocoons at the Air Force Research Laboratory Materials and Manufacturing Directorate's Biological Materials Lab. The silk fibroin obtained from the cocoons is used in making biocompatible thin films to embed nanoparticles and other materials made using synthetic biology approaches.
