Synthetic biology combines the disciplines of biology, computer science, engineering, mathematics and chemistry, providing methods to understand biological systems that could not have been imagined just decades ago. Vaccine technology is one of the medical fields that tremendously benefit from synthetic biology. Chemical synthesis of computationally redesigned viruses offers a new paradigm in vaccine technology.
