“Synthetic biology hasn’t done anything important in the real world.”
Young biologists should work on plants. 🌱 1. SynBio tools are ~10 yrs behind bacteria 2. Basic science has lagged. Often, we don't know what to edit to improve traits 3. Pesticide use is flat & 40% of crops lost to pests 5. Design flowers. Lots of room to make a big impact!

A Pandemic Test-Ban Treaty would ban the experimental tests needed to learn which viruses are pandemic-capable. Rogue actors can't perform these and be believed because the results are easy to fake. Only the well-meaning can share credible blueprints for plagues.
