Preface Over billions of years of evolution, nature has developed multiple types of organisms from just “20 + 2” naturally occurring amino acids. Over roughly the last three decades, mankind equipped itself with the tools for expanding the genetic code in ways that theoretically could enable us to extend this number to infinity. Only a few years ago, papers reporting on genetic code expansion typically started
