Geoff Baldwin is Professor of Synthetic & Molecular Biology at Imperial College London, he is Co-Director of the Imperial College Centre for Synthetic Biology and Director of the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in BioDesign Engineering. Research work in the Baldwin lab focuses on the development of synthetic biology approaches to facilitate the engineering of new biological systems for real-world applications. To this end he has developed foundational tools that transform our ability to rapidly prototype new biological designs, like DNA-BOT, automated DNA assembly based on the BASIC method. These fundamental developments are being applied across a broad range of projects that address gene circuit design; RNA feedback control and in vivo directed evolution for the generation of new protein specificity and functionality. Recently he has been developing new AI based approaches to enhance our ability to engineer new biological systems with human interpretable outcomes and only sparse sampling of the design space.

Yuval Dorfan, PhD & MBA has a strong background in synthetic biology, electrical engineering, machine learning, distributed computing, and signal processing. As a research scientist at MIT, he focused on genetic circuits within microorganisms, mainly on closing the loop, computational tools, and application-oriented projects. His new group at HIT is involved in various bio-convergence collaborative projects with scientists from high-league universities in Israel and other countries. Dr. Dorfan is a co-founder of Alagene, a new Israeli bio-foundry, that is one of the main growth engines of the local ecosystem. He has almost thirty years of industrial experience and many years of academic experience in various technological and scientific fields.
