If there's one thing I learned from the synthetic bio courses is that almost anything can be synthesized. But I do see where profits come in, and that's sad, but true in all timeframes. You want cotton for clothes? We can synthesize that. You want gas for your car? We can synthesize that. You want silk for your pillowcase? We can synthesize that. You want a new drug? Enter the effects into a computer and we can synthesize a pill for that. Insulin? Well, you'll have to buy that, but we'll synthesize it. The possibilities reach the Star Trek level!

15:00 ... Luckily for us that the gene had been cloned. All we thought what we needed to do was to get access to that gene. Unfortunately, the person who had cloned that gene wouldn't give us access so we had to synthesise the gene directly.

the perfect example of how the intertwined system of intellectual property rights, "publish or perish", and competition in academia crippled our pursuit for knowledge and global solutions

Jay is a revolutionary thinker and CAN make things happen. See his malaria work among others. Coming out of Nebraska he knows the America Midwest can offer more resources that can displace carbon based fuels. He grew up on a farm. But he also knows that the fermentation process is not at the efficiency levels needed. Enzymes may do it and he can create the synthetic product for commercial production. Also, corn can still be used to feed livestock after the process. The problem is that wet distillers grain is heavy. This is a problem ready to be solved by the next great innovator.

Yes, I agree with her success of malaria work. However, due to the complex of living system, I might doubt any work will repeat his success in malaria.

Atomically with a spectrography they can know of what is composed artemisinin of => then they could produce it as a synthesis for example with a bio-reactor

So, not only is that biology is slow but it's also that people don't share their trade secrets. There's no incentive to do so. Not sure how you get around that.

people need to stop worrying about incentives and stop letting the feelings of fear, greed and desire take over and go off of what they know not what they want for themselves. We need more people to make Keasling known! (with all respect)

Uh, you're carbon neutral system sounds neat, but we exceeded the capacity of photosynthesis in the 1500's when we chopped down every tree in Europe for fuel.
