Our Story
The Estonian Centre for Synthetic Biology was founded in spring 2016 on the basis of the Institute of Technology (www.tuit.ut.ee), University of Tartu (www.ut.ee), and a collection of other Estonian labs that conduct research on various aspects of synthetic biology. The leading figures of the initiative were prof. Mart Loog (looglab.com) and newly appointed ERA Chair holder in synthetic biology Dr. Petri –Jan Lahtvee. The ECSB, while founded and based at the Institute of Technology, is currently acting as an umbrella organization for the consortium of synthetic biology labs in Estonia, but its greater aim is to develop a research and technology development centre of its own.
