As Europeans explored the interior of the African continent in the mid-19th century, the societies they encountered were often characterized as technologically underdeveloped.
Deep in the jungles of what is present-day Ghana, however, paved roads guided these explorers to large cities with multi-story buildings that rose above the tree line.

For decades, biologists have read and edited DNA, the code of life. Revolutionary developments are giving scientists the power to write it. Instead of tinkering with existing life forms, synthetic biologists may be on the verge of writing the DNA of a living organism from scratch. In the next decade, according to some, we may even see the first synthetic human genome. Join a distinguished group of synthetic biologists, geneticists and bioengineers who are edging closer to breathing life into matter.
This program is part of the Big Ideas Series, made possible with support from the John Templeton Foundation.
