Articles

A programming language for living cells : New language lets researchers design novel biological circuits
Artificial Molecules : Scientists have figured out how to make their own molecules from scratch
DNA Data Storage : DNA Data Storage Moves Beyond Moore’s Law
Scientific Swap Meet Behind the gene-editing Boom : The gene-editing technology called CRISPR is probably the fastest-spreading technology in the history of biology

Software

Cello Cad : Genetic circuit design automation
(Poly)merase 676 about 1 month ago A Go library and command line utility for engineering organisms
GENtle2 100 almost 6 years ago : Web-Based DNA Editor for Synthetic Biology
Gigabase : Brogramming for life
fpSelection : fpSelection tool uses a set of algorithms for solving these problems efficiently to design n-color fluorophore panels that are optimized for maximal signal, minimal bleed-through, and other biological parameters for a specific fluorescent measurement instrument

Programming Languages

Verilog (Cello) 54 over 2 years ago : A genetic logic synthesis tool. A high-level logic specification written in Verilog (a hardware description language) can be synthesized to give a plasmid containing logic gates
Eugene : Eugene is a human- and machine-readable language for specifying the design of biological systems. It allows users to generate biological designs based on customizable constraints, such as the maximum number of included genetic parts, the directionality of specific components, or the total sequence length of the output device

Hardware

BioHackAcademy : hardware design file repos from online(?) course
3DuF : Open souce design tool for microfluidics design

Interviews

Autodesk : Synthetic Biology - Inventing the Future

Standards

SBOL : Standard interchange format to exchange information between design tools and scientists
SBML : Standards to describe mathematical models for biological systems

Resources

Golden Synthetic Biology Cluster : A cluster of topic pages related to Synthetic Biology
Gene Design : Synthetic biology library in Perl
SBOL 38 about 2 years ago : Java Library for Synthetic Biology Open Language (SBOL)
Addgene : is a nonprofit plasmid repository that archives and distributes high quality plasmids
compsynbio.org : is the course website for Boston University's "Computational Synthetic Biology for Engineers". Website features complete lecture slide decks, reading assingments and open-sourced project repos
