<h2> Human Practices </h2>
+
<body>
  
<p>iGEM teams are unique and leading the field because they "go beyond the lab" to imagine their projects in a social/environmental context, to better understand issues that might influence the design and use of their technologies.</p>
+
<style>
<p>Teams work with students and advisors from the humanities and social sciences to explore topics concerning ethical, legal, social, economic, safety or security issues related to their work. Consideration of these Human Practices is crucial for building safe and sustainable projects that serve the public interest. </p>

Practices

This summer at WPI we participated in two outreach activities - Touch Tomorrow and the Women in Science camp. We managed to reach over 400 people and educate them about the fun of synthetic biology. To read more, click here.

We also participated in the interlab study this year! We found that the Anderson promoters work as described on their registry page. To see our protocol and results, click here.

As part of our investigation beyond the bench, we questioned the safety of lysogenic phage therapy. To read more, click here.

Finally, our team participated in safety training at the beginning of the summer and complied with all of the WPI safety guidelines. For more information, including a complete list of species from which we got our antifreeze proteins, click here.
