20. Control Systems for Gene Expression and Work-Life Balance w/ Mustafa Khammash
Description
In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Mustafa Khammash, Professor of Control Theory and Systems Biology in the Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering at ETH-Zurich. We talk with Mustafa about integrating control theory into synthetic biology, designing computer/biology interfaces, starting a wet lab as a tenured computational professor, the need for new theoretical frameworks for biological design, and more!
Notes:
During the episode, Dr. Khammash references two different papers from his lab, linked below.
Cybergenetics: Theory and Applications of Genetic Control Systems
Universal structural requirements for maximal robust perfect adaptation in biomolecular networks
