Laboratory of astrobiology and Synthetic biology

A theoretical and bioinformatic research project centered on the synergy between mycelia and tardigrades to explore astrobiology, habitability on Mars, and alternative life forms, evaluated through both biological( synthetic biology and biotechnology) and extreme cosmological lenses (including black hole dynamics and cosmological boundary conditions).

Its core axes are:

• Extreme Cosmology & Astrobiology: Rigorous assessment of biological adaptation and resilience mechanisms under severe cosmological stress and high-gravity or energetic regimes (such as those associated with black holes), integrating astrophysics and biology.

• Synthetic Biology & Biocomputing: Translating acquired biological knowledge into BioBricks and qubit-enabled BioBricks for biocomputing, strictly framed within ethical, scientific, and non-commercial principles.

• Micropropagation & Outer Space Exposure: Gaining a deeper understanding of life's structural and functional responses when exposed to space through techniques like micropropagation, establishing a continuous feedback loop between theoretical models and biological data across both disciplines.
