Rathenau Debate Proposal

This October, the Rathenau Instituut (in collaboration with the African-European iGEM organization committee) will stage the Meeting of Young Minds Debate 2012, in which young people representing the worlds of science, the public and policy making will come together to debate around the topic of SynBio and society. Our proposal (‘A synthetic biology crisis – accountability, public perception, and the future of synthetic biology’) is one of three themes that have been selected for debate. We're looking forward to writing our position paper over the next month, which will further develop upon our 'crisis scenario' proposal.
