Public Comments Requested on Synthetic Biology Policy Issues

The Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues is requesting public comments on the emerging science of synthetic biology, including its potential applications and risks, as well as appropriate ethical boundaries. President Obama requested this review following an announcement in May 2010 that a research institute had successfully engineered a synthetic cell. Comments will be accepted until October 1, 2010.
