Safety and security sciences boast a rich and multidisciplinary history of nearly two centuries of intriguing and impactful research and development. Nevertheless, these fields are still on the fringe of formal scientific recognition and public awareness of their influence on daily life remains limited. The TU Delft Section of Safety and Security Science (Department of Values, Technology, and Innovation) created a series of enlightening posters to help remedy this.

“What is life? How does a living cell emerge from lifeless molecules?” wondered a multidisciplinary team of Dutch scientists. To answer these questions the research team, led by the TU Delft, aims to build a living synthetic cell from lifeless biomolecules, using laboratory evolution and artificial intelligence for the first time. The ten-year research programme to do so, entitled “Evolving life from non-life” or simply “EVOLF”, was awarded 40 million euro by the Dutch Research Council (NWO) as part of the Summit grants scheme.
