The ethical landscape: identifying the right way to think about the ethical and societal aspects of synthetic biology research and products

15 May 2009

Abstract excerpt

Synthetic biology promises to be highly innovative in its contribution to scientific understanding. But it offers other sorts of innovation too: in the variety of applications that could result and in the wide range of practitioners who could become involved. But directly corresponding to each of these is a kind of regulatory concern. If the entry barriers are low for a form of scientific practice with dramatic...
