Online Health Expert Major Medical News Flash: Synthetic Life Becomes Reality!
The Creation of First Synthetic Life form is a Life Changing Step that has Re-Defined "LIFE": Dynamic Software (DNA and RNA) driven Organic Machines (Life forms like you and me).
New Software (Computer Designed and Synthetically made DNA) + Organic Raw Material = "New Life form"
Synthetic life became a reality last year (2010) when a team of 40 researchers led by Dr. J. Craig Venter, a geneticist and scientist at his not for profit research institute located in Rockville, Maryland were able to create a synthetic cell whose 1.08 million base pair Mycoplasma mycoides genome was digitalized and modified on a computer and the base pairs were put together in the laboratory. This is the First Self-Replicating Synthetic Bacterial Cell with numerous applications.
