Synthetic biology is a field of biotechnology that is rapidly
growing in various applications, such as in medicine, environmental
sustainability, and energy production. However these technologies
also have unforeseen risks and applications to humans and the
environment. This open access book presents discussions on risks
and mitigation strategies for these technologies including
biosecurity, or the potential of synthetic biology technologies and
processes to be deliberately misused for nefarious purposes. The
book presents strategies to prevent, mitigate, and recover from
'dual-use concern' biosecurity challenges that may be raised by
individuals, rogue states, or non-state actors. Several key topics
are explored including opportunities to develop more coherent and
scalable approaches to govern biosecurity from a laboratory
perspective up to the international scale and strategies to prevent
potential health and environmental hazards posed by deliberate
misuse of synthetic biology without stifling innovation. The book
brings together the expertise of top scholars in synthetic biology
and biotechnology risk assessment, management, and communication to
discuss potential biosecurity governing strategies and offer
perspectives for collaboration in oversight and future regulatory
guidance.
