Synthetic Biology Ethics
Overview: With our primary project focused on the development of a probiotic, interesting ethical concerns arose throughout our work. As our project progressed, these issues did not disappear. Instead, we asked new questions seemingly every day. Our group examined the concerns not only as a human practices project, but as a way to understand how our construct and idea could evolve in the real world. Upon examination, most of our ethical questions fell into three categories: liability, legality and personal ethics.
