Human Practices

"Human Practices is the study of how your work affects the world, and how the world affects your work." — Peter Carr, Director of Judging

The PP group worked and cooperated with the research team in order to develop, communicate, create a diverse and creative project. It was important for us to include in our study topics such as ethics, culture, society, accessibility of information to the general public in an unusual way. The purpose of the PP activities was to answer questions on various subjects that will integrate with laboratory work. We did our best to invest our time and energy in real long-lasting contribution.
