Semiconductor Research Corporation Manufacturing Consortium

Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) is a high-technology research consortium that manages collaborative R&D between the semiconductor industry, academia, and government agencies. While primarily focused on microelectronics, SRC has established a significant presence in the life sciences through its Semiconductor Synthetic Biology (Semi-SynBio) program, which explores the convergence of biology and information technology. The organization funds and coordinates research into DNA-based data storage, bio-electronic sensors, and molecular communication systems. SRC serves as a strategic platform for industry leaders to develop pre-competitive technologies that bridge the gap between biological processes and advanced computing, aiming to revolutionize healthcare diagnostics and sustainable manufacturing.
