Human Practice

Policy & Practice

This summer, Abdullah, our outreach coordinator, planned several activities in which we engaged the community in learning and discussing synthetic biology. We gave 45 min powerpoint presentations to a range of audiences; from incoming freshmen interested in pursuing biology as a career, to eight graders eager to learn more. We engaged with programs such as CTD (Center for Talent Development) and BioExcel. In addition, we served as advisors to a group of motivated high school students who were trying to use the tools of synthetic biology to combat diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Furthermore, we helped other teams' efforts by completing their surveys.

    What do you want to study?
    What is the highest level of education you want to obtain?
    Did our class spark interest in syn bio?
    What did the students say about our presentation?

    It is very informative, yet simple and understandable, very well explained

    I thought you were concise and I understood everything but you could have taken more of our time because I want to learn more!

    I liked that you had us come up with ideas of synthetic biology.

    What is your dream job?
