What the tool is doing

This is a field concept for materials that incorporate living or engineered biological components to create programmable functions at a biomaterial interface.

Source 2DOIPubMed

What problem it solves

It provides a unifying label for work that combines synthetic biology with material design.

Source 2DOIPubMed

What it does not solve

It is not itself a discrete tool, construct, or assay.
