SAEBR (Surprise Avoidance in Engineering Biology Research)
Abstract
There is a national security need to assess and address the capabilities enabled by enhanced engineering biology technologies, and to protect the tools used for the facile engineering of biological systems. The Surprise Avoidance in Engineering Biology Research (SAEBR) program will enlist leading experts across the engineering biology field to assess potentially surprising/unanticipated applications enabled by newly designed tools, technologies, and methodologies as well as their potential for misuse. Applied research in this area will focus on understanding how current tools and technologies may be safeguarded against potential misuse.
