Emerging Threats of Synthetic Biology and Biotechnology, 1st ed. 2021 Addressing Security and Resilience Issues NATO Science for Peace and Security Series C: Environmental Security Series

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateurs : Trump Benjamin D., Florin Marie-Valentine, Perkins Edward, Linkov Igor

Couverture de l’ouvrage Emerging Threats of Synthetic Biology and Biotechnology
Synthetic biology is a field of biotechnology that is rapidly growing in various applications, such as in medicine, environmental sustainability, and energy production. However these technologies also have unforeseen risks and applications to humans and the environment. 

This open access book presents discussions on risks and mitigation strategies for these technologies including biosecurity, or the potential of synthetic biology technologies and processes to be deliberately misused for nefarious purposes. The book presents strategies to prevent, mitigate, and recover from ?dual-use concern? biosecurity challenges that may be raised by individuals, rogue states, or non-state actors. Several key topics are explored including opportunities to develop more coherent and scalable approaches to govern biosecurity from a laboratory perspective up to the international scale and strategies to prevent potential health and environmental hazards posed by deliberate misuse of synthetic biology without stifling innovation. The book brings together the expertise of top scholars in synthetic biology and biotechnology risk assessment, management, and communication to discuss potential biosecurity governing strategies and offer perspectives for collaboration in oversight and future regulatory guidance.

Benjamin D. TRUMP

Dr. Benjamin D. TRUMP is a Research Social Scientist for the US Army Corps of Engineers.

Dr. Trump’s work focuses on decision making and governance of activities under significant

uncertainty, such as emerging and enabling technologies (synthetic biology, nanotechnology)

and developing organizational, infrastructural, social, and informational resilience against

systemic threats to complex interconnected systems. Dr. Trump served as a delegate to assist US

presence in OECD’s Global Science Forum in 2017, and was the President of the Society for

Risk Analysis’ Decision Analysis and Risk Specialty Group in 2018-2019, as well as its

Resilience Analysis Specialty Group in 2019-2020. He was selected as a Fellow of the Emerging

Leaders in Biosecurity Initiative, Class of 2019. In December 2020, Dr. Trump was installed as

the Treasurer of the Society for Risk Analysis. Dr. Trump was also a contributing author of the

International Risk Governance Council’s Guidelines for the Governance of Systemic Risks, as

well as their 2nd Volume of the Resource Guide on Resilience. Dr. Trump is also frequently

active with several Advanced Research Workshops for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s

Science for Peace Programme. Co-authored with Dr. Igor Linkov, Dr. Trump’s book The Science

and Practice of Resilience (2019) includes a detailed discussion of the methodological,

philosophical, and governance-related work behind the concept of resilience. His follow-up book

with Dr. Myriam Merad, Expertise Under Scrutiny (2020), addresses the challenges facing

decision makers of how to construct and implement scientifically formed and institutionally valid

decisions within an environment of heightened uncertainty and public criticism. Dr. Trump

received his Ph.D. from the University of Michigan’s School of Public Health, Department of

Health Ma

Identifies potential biosecurity governing strategies for synthetic biology and biotechnologies
