ABOUT US
SYNBIOCHEM is a UK/European Centre of Excellence for the synthetic biology of fine and speciality chemicals production (including new products and intermediates for drug development, agrochemical and new materials for sustainable bio-manufacturing).
RESEARCH
The SYNBIOCHEM Pipeline integrates Design, Build, Test and Learn (re-Design) platforms.
These are applied to early chemical targets that are of commercial interest.

SYNBIOCHEM is a UK/European Centre of Excellence for the synthetic Biology of fine and speciality chemicals production (including new products and intermediates for drug development, agrochemical and new materials for sustainable bio-manufacturing). Through active collaborations with industry partners SYNBIOCHEM is harnessing the power of SynBio to propel chemicals/natural products production towards ‘greener’ more sustainable manufacturing processes.
The Centre has developed a unique series highly integrated interdisciplinary technology platforms and a truly world-leading physical infrastructure for contemporary fine and speciality chemicals production. The emerging societal, ethical, and regulatory challenges (Responsible Research and Innovation, RRI) associated with this rapidly advancing new technology are addressed in close interaction with social scientists and economists across The University of Manchester.
