Xenopus laevis enters iGEM, thus becoming a new “chassis” on which the iGEM teams could do synthetic biology. As our project aims at getting SB to an upper scale, the one of a multicellular organism, we believe we have to do a deep investigation on the psychological and ethical questions raised by our project. Thus our human practice should be the occasion to discuss in the lab the various positions team members and society may have concerning animal experimentation and animal biotechnology. We decided to track the changes in our attitude to animal experimentation during our project by doing surveys; we are organizing debates to clarify what we understand by ethics for SB and animal experimenation, presentations to familiarize ourselves with various animal rights theories, think or re-think our relation to non-human beings.</br>

<p>For our human practice we decided to develop a philosophical investigation concerning the introduction of <i> Xenopus tropicalis </i> as a new chassis for the iGEM contest.</p>

As we decided doing SB on tadpoles we were first confronted with the issue of animal experimentation. The few information we had at hand were kind of confusing, are tadpoles considered by law as animals or as embryos? This point could have a strong impact on our work, defining straightly what we could or could not do, where, with who, and if we need specific formations. We can see in the explanatory report of the <a href="http://conventions.coe.int/Treaty/EN/Reports/Html/123.htm">European Convention for the Protection of Vertebrate Animals used for Experimental and other Scientific Purposes</a> intended line 11 that tadpoles' status have been a matter of debates.  </br>

B/ Do you feel embarrassed when you have to explain what you are doing to your friends or family? </br>
+
-
C/ What is their reaction when you tell them you are engineering tadpoles? </br>
+
-
D/ How do you feel about experimenting on tadpoles? </br>
+
-
E/ What difference do you make between experimenting on bacteria and on tadpoles? </br>
