Human Practices Overview
One of the novelties of our project this year is its immediate application. Because we are collaborating with a corporation, our research will be implemented directly upon its conclusion and will improve both Ecovative’s biodegradable material and the company’s production process. That being said, our work's immediate utilization requires a focus on the safety of releasing our genetically modified organism into the environment and its impact on the consumer market. To address these concerns, we worked closely with Ecovative and discussed our project in great detail with environmental activists, small business owners, scientific researchers, and several other communities that have an interest or would be affected by our research.
