| − | <p>On this page of your wiki, you should write about how you are addressing any safety issues in your project. The wiki is a place where you can <strong>go beyond the questions on the safety forms</strong>, and write about whatever safety topics are most interesting in your project. (You do not need to copy your safety forms onto this wiki page.)</p>

| − | <h4>Safe Project Design</h4>
| |
| | | | |
| − | <p>Does your project include any safety features? Have you made certain decisions about the design to reduce risks? Write about them here! For example:</p>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <ul>
| |
| − | <li>Choosing a non-pathogenic chassis</li>
| |
| − | <li>Choosing parts that will not harm humans / animals / plants</li>
| |
| − | <li>Substituting safer materials for dangerous materials in a proof-of-concept experiment</li>
| |
| − | <li>Including an "induced lethality" or "kill-switch" device</li>
| |
| − | </ul>

| | <p>All work for this project was done in Cooper Union’s Kanbar Laboratory. This lab is classified as biosafety level 1. Either a professor or a lab technician was present at all times while we were in the lab. Standard lab safety practices were followed during all protocols. The lab was separated into a wetware space and a hardware space to prevent contamination. While working in the wetware space, nitrile or latex gloves were worn at all times. Biological wastes were disposed of in proper containers.</p> | | <p>All work for this project was done in Cooper Union’s Kanbar Laboratory. This lab is classified as biosafety level 1.
