As we are in the foundational advancement track one are of human practices was aimed at focusing on the potential future uses of our project can lead to.
 +
<br>
 +
The research into this was conducted by interviewing several professors;
 +
<br>Dr Orkun Soyer
 +
<br>Henry Porter
 +
<br>Andrea
 +
<br>Dr Till Bretschnieder
 +
<br>Dr Simon Leigh
 +
<br>We really appreciated their help and contribution to our project.
 +
<br><br>In these discussions we looked at how our work may impact their field of expertise and compare our method to others being used. This helps us address any criticisms or concerns surrounding our work.
 +
<br>The range of fields on which we focused included cell to cell signalling, cell communities, bio-printing, and 3D manufacturing.

<br><br>When we visited the Birmingham ThinkTank museum we explained the aspect of the possibility of using our method for manufacturing purposes. On speaking with members of the public we wanted to prompt imaginative ideas into what science should aim to build. This was mainly to spark interest and get people thinking of how things can be built.  Here are some of the ideas people came up with:
