              Thousands die each year from drugs that are contaminated with dangerous cutting agents or other more potent drugs. In addition, there has been a rise in accidental overdoses from users not knowing the purity of the drugs they consume.

              As students living in Edinburgh, a city often dubbed "the drug capital of Europe", this problem is very close to our hearts. Fear of controversy and misunderstanding is no excuse for turning a blind eye to the many in dire need of help, and we believe that we possess the necessary resources, skills and desire to confront this problem in a responsible and thoughtful manner.

                We are creating a cell- free paper-based biosensor that can provide a user with a better understanding of the composition of their drugs. Our biosensor will detect lethal contaminants and give a quantitative analysis of purity, red-lighting dangerously high purity levels, providing valuable information to users that could potentially save lives .

Can SynBIo reduce drug related harm? We think this is possible.

We're creating a cell-free, paper based biosensor that can provide a semiquantitative analysis of the purity of heroin, as well as test for contaminants in MDMA and diet pills, in order to reduce the likelihood of overdose and illness.

Our Project

For our human practices, we have written a story. Check out our timeline to see how each chapter unfolds.

We talked to UK drug policy experts, moral philosophers, end users and many more. Click below to see how we adapted the biology and design of our biosensor in response to their input, and how this process changed our own preconceived notions regarding drug abuse.

Our Story

We've created a page dedicated to explicitly stating where we have fulfilled each medal and special prize requirement on our wiki.

Here, you will find links that direct you to our attempts at fulfilling the criteria for a gold medal, the integrated human practices award and more.
