<20.20: Design features


This site is a work zone. Eventually we hope to offer an array of animations with comic characters Systems Sally and Device Dude (and Buddy, of course) describing foundational ideas in synthetic biology. The site is started at Biobuilder

List your topic ideas here

All topic ideas are sincerely welcomed!!
