Cum sociis natoque</p> | + | <p class="mainText">The thought of using our iGEM project as an opportunity to promote the public’s view of synthetic biology was inspired by iGEM’s view that as an iGEM team, we are ambassadors for the face of genetic modification and all the benefits it can bring to people. They stressed that we must operate in a safe, sensible and responsible way in order to avoid damaging the already controversial face of the field of synthetic biology. This was spurred on by many a conversation over lunch revolving around the public’s, often misguided and uneducated, opinion of genetically modified organisms. Therefore, not only did we strive to be safe, sensible and responsible scientists, we aimed to help the public get the facts about genetic modification, allowing them to make more informed decisions on the subject in the future. |
