Safety

Key Achievements
• Produced an in-depth analysis of the impact of our project on global economies and ecosystems
• Communicated with industry and environmentalists to directly influence the way our project was carried out
• Ran workshops to bring synthetic biology to public attention

The team planned and delivered 12 workshops for children aged 11-13 years old as part of the University of Manchester’s Science Stars event. We also held a poster stand at a Community Open Day that saw hundreds of people through its doors. Click here to learn more...

PUBLIC OUTREACH

Due to the nature of our chosen topic, ethics has played a major role in the development of the project. Here we address the potential problems of using synbio to produce a synthetic alternative to a natural project, and the ways that we would try to overcome them.

ETHICS

We believe that modelling is a vital step in the production of any synbio system. But often the production of such models can be hindered or left out altogether due to lack of expertise. Thus we enlisted the help of another two UK iGEM teams in a quest to educate the iGEM community about the software available to them.

MODELLING COLLABORATION

The Knowledge Deficit model describes the common misconception by scientists that ‘The Public’ is simply ignorant of science, and this is the root of all opposition. We had dialogue with numerous industry representatives and environmental activists, and learned that the truth is not as simple as this...

KNOWLEDGE DEFICIT ASSUMPTION

Our iGEM experience began in December ‘12, and since then we have been attending various conferences and discussions around synthetic biology, including the first ever Young Synthetic Biologists (YSB 1.0) conference in London!

CONFERENCES AND DISCUSSIONS
