Our mission is to make biology easier to engineer. Ginkgo is constructing, editing, and redesigning the living world in order to answer the globe’s growing challenges in health, energy, food, materials, and more. Our bioengineers make use of an in-house automated foundry for designing and building new organisms. 

Team Introduction

The Design Team’s mission is to unlock the power of synthetic biology by making genetic engineering — the art of designing genotypes and underlying DNA that ultimately achieves a desired phenotype — more predictive and robust. We are an interdisciplinary team with core expertise in computational biology, genomics, bioinformatics, microbial and mammalian genetics, RNA biology, statistics, and software engineering. We design and develop GInkgo’s genetic design platform, and directly support Ginkgo’s portfolio of customer projects with design and analysis of high-throughput experiments. We work in a broad range of application areas, including health, agriculture, specialty chemicals, and biosecurity.
