Biotechnology research is aimed at using a wide range of natural forces to bend molecules to various useful ends, and at inventing the tools needed to do so.

The Biotechnology bundle includes a brief tour of recent developments that brings out connections among key issues. It also includes the text of 18 in-depth TRN stories about key biotechnology research projects, and six related images.

The bundle is organized into two major categories: biomolecular engineering and tools. Story subjects range from labs-on-a-chip to laser tweezers to DNA computers.
