Disruptive innovations in Synthetic Biology to promote Health, Food, Sustainable Energy and Industrial Decarbonization
2023-2025
PROJECT SCOPE
- The SYNTHBIOMICS project seeks to make visible the potential of Synthetic Biology in key areas for the economic development of Navarra.
- SYNTHBIOMICS proposes the development and implementation of a biotechnology strategy with three main action pillars:
- Design and synthesis of a synthetic library of nanobodies
- Generation of biosensors for contaminants detection in food
- Fixation of C1 compounds for the production of chemical intermediates that can be converted into advanced fuels and other bioproducts
CENER ROLE
- Development of genetically modified microorganisms more efficient for chemical platforms synthesis (building blocks), which by means of sustainable and efficient processes allow the production of:
- Advanced (bio)fuels
- Other (bio)based products from gaseous streams
