Jamie Davies
Jamie Davies is Professor of Experimental Anatomy at the University of Edinburgh where his interests lie in using techniques of synthetic biology to program cells to make self-constructing, artificial tissues. His lab has been a pioneer in applying synthetic biological techniques to multicellular, mammalian systems and has built and published systems that allow researchers to control the collective behaviour of human cells. As well as publishing 150 research papers and 5 specialist books, he has published a trade science book with OUP (Life Unfolding). He has been elected a Fellow of the Society of Biology, Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine, and Principal Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and is a Chartered Science Teacher.
