  Systems and Synthetic Biology Group  

   University of Sao Paulo, Ribeirao Preto   

Our mission

To develop Systems and Synthetic Biology approaches in Brazil to understand life and to construct microorganisms for novel applications.

The Group
​
The Systems and Synthetic Biology Group is formed by two core unities. The Synthetic Biology Core is based at the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology at FMRP-USP and is headed by Prof. Rafael Silva-Rocha. The Metagenomics Core is based at the Department of Biology at FFCLRP-USP and is headed by Prof. María Eugenia Guazzaroni. Both unities, while physically separated, work together to generate novel application combining metagenomics and synthetic biology.
