Join Bitesize Bio and Twist Bioscience for an exciting webinar exploring how synthetic biology is transforming rubber production!

Explore synthetic biology and cultivation methods to improve biosynthetic yields and learn how these methods mitigate the economic and social impact of natural rubber farming by enabling synthetic rubber production from dandelions.

In this webinar, you will learn:

• How targeted gene editing and synthetic pathway engineering can enhance biosynthetic yields;

• How these methods were used to improve the yield of biosynthetic rubber production in dandelions;

• How the environmental and social impact of farming natural rubber can be reduced using applied synthetic biology.

Natural rubber production from the rubber tree Hevea brasiliensis poses significant environmental and economic challenges, including deforestation, labor exploitation, and vulnerability to diseases like South American leaf blight.

With a global demand of 15 million tons annually and over 50,000 rubber products, finding sustainable alternatives to natural rubber is critical.
