Synthetic biology is the design and construction of biological devices and systems for useful purposes. [ 1 ] It is an area of biological research and technology that combines science and engineering . It encompasses a variety of different approaches, methodologies, and disciplines with a focus on engineering biology. [ 2 ] Synthetic biologists approach the creation of new biological systems from different perspectives, focusing on finding how life works (the origin of life) or how to use it to benefit society. The former focus includes the approach of biology, inserting man-made DNA into a living cell ; and chemistry, working on gene synthesis as an extension of synthetic chemistry . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_biology

Doesn't hurt ;-) I usually go by this > If it seems no one is intersted and is in the way , then either stick it under something ;-) Or last resort delete it ;-) by mirlen101 May 28

You've got a point :-) I'll leave it there for a while and see if people use it. But I definitely think there are much better ways to share scientific papers for the time being. by dbikard May 28

Oops! did I do that? I'm sorry, I'm new at this! by biosintetica May 28

I'm not sure I get your logic about deleting the "Article " "Papers " pearltree ? I mean pearltrees is about pointing people to information . Information is by nature all inclusive ! Did you look at the hit numbers before deleting it ? Might have given an idea of how much it was deemed useful or not . Just a thought ;-) Of course one makes their own decisions on what is important and unimportant when it comes to their own content. by mirlen101 May 28
