Synthetic Biology
1. Standards - Establishing standards for biological parts to ensure interoperability and allow for construction of complex systems
2. Biocircuits - Implementing wetware abstraction layers to allow creation of devices for cellular computation and communications
3. Epigenetics - Manipulating chromatin structures with histone and DNA modifications as a form of biological software programming
4. Delivery Systems - Making viruses or other vectors for targeted delivery of DNA parts into an established host genome
Bioengineering
1. Immunology - Defining the theoretical framework and designing components for an artificial immune system
2. Drug Discovery - Designing cell reporter systems to detect biomolecule interactions and perturbations in signal transduction
3. Astrobiology - Engineering energy pathways and lifeforms sustainable in extreme environments
4. Biocomputing - Integrating logic biocircuits on a very large scale in single cell and multicellular systems
Biosecurity and Biosafety
1. Policy - Balancing the needs of an open hacker community with access restrictions
2. Testing and Certification - Establishing an "Underwriters Laboratories" for developing standards and test procedures for biosafety
3. Countermeasures - Designing fail-safe mechanisms to mitigate potential synthetic biology abuses
