Abstract: Life science will be at the forefront of all sciences. Biotech industry is projected to become an unparalleled industrial mainstay. In 2020, human society will go into a bioeconomy era. Life science, as a tool, has provided new research methods and new thinking ways for other natural sciences. Similarly, life science also could provide research methods and thinking ways for social science to form the “Social-genology” and“Econo-genology”. By using the principle and methodology of life science to study the moving regularity of human society, the“social-genology” theory is expressed. A family is a“triplet code ” of a society, the“working units” is the “gene” of a society, and a“community” is the“cell” of a society. Adam Smith, the father of Economics, bought an “invisible hand law”. The questions and the concept on market economy are same as“the First Law of Genetics” proposed by Gregor Mendel. Therefore, the Adam Smith's theory also could be called as“the First Law of Econo-genology”. The mathematical, physical, chemical or biological recombination shows the same function occurred in the recombination of economy and capitals. The fundamental of bioeconomy is based on the research, development and application of life science and biotechnology. On the bases of the biotechnological products and industrialization, bioeconomy consists of three key points: (a) the economy is built on the biotech products with industrialization that are also based on the fundamental of development and application of life science and biotechnology; (b) for any changes on economy are brought by biological incidents (such as pestilence, bio-terror, or bio-war); (c) the economics theory and models are built by using the principles and concepts from life science and medical knowledge. Therefore, after done the Human Genome Project (HGP), the research on Social Genome Project (SGP) and the Economy Genome Project (EGP) should be started now.

Key words: biological century, life sciences, frontier sciences, social-genology, econo-genology, biological recombination, bioeconomy

摘要: 生命科学可作为工具为其他自然科学提供研究方法和思路,并形成新学科。生命科学也可为社会科学研究提供方法和思路,用它去研究社会学和经济学,可产生“社会基因学”和 “经济基因学”。“社会基因学”即家庭是社会的密码,单位是社会的基因,社区是社会的细胞。亚当·斯密提出的“看不见的手的定律”可称为 “经济基因学第一定律”。经济和资产的数学重组、物理重组、化学重组和生物重组是经济基因学的表现形式。生物经济是以生命科学和生物技术研究开发及应用为基础,建立在生物技术产品和产业之上的经济。因此,在“人类基因组计划”之后,人类应开始实施“社会基因组计划”和“经济基因组计划”。
