Advancing Genomics to Better Life
Designing algae to improve the health of the planet
Bringing Algae From Lab to Field
Through Research, Collaboration and Bold Thinking, we are forging a path to harness the power of these exceptional organisms to produce renewable, low carbon, heavy duty transportation fuel for truck and planes
ExxonMobil: Growing Algae Biofuels
Synthetic Genomics is recognized in ExxonMobil’s latest campaign on algae biofuels.
“ExxonMobil is getting closer to growing algae biofuels that could one day power planes, propel ships, and fuel trucks…and cut their emissions in half.”
Sunrise to sunset: 24 hours at an algae farm
At a farm in California’s Imperial Valley, Synthetic Genomics and ExxonMobil are cultivating acres of energy-rich algae, working day and night toward the technical ability to produce 10,000 barrels a day of low-emission algae biofuel by 2025.
Dan Gibson at TED
Dan Gibson, VP of DNA Technology, spoke at TED about how the world’s first “biological teleporter” may change how medicines are delivered on-demand
Some farms grow food. Ours grows fuel.
In partnership with ExxonMobil, we’re growing algae biofuels to one day power planes, propel ships and fuel trucks—ultimately offering the potential to cut emissions in half.
