| | + | Synthetic biology isn’t easy to explain to non-scientists. But explaining the CRISPR-Cas9 technology is way harder. Not only because those matters are complex, but also because we still do not know precisely the consequences of such technologies. If the CRISPR-Cas9 technology is undoubtedly a revolution, the seism affects other fields, interconnected with science (ethics, law and economy as an example). |

| − | <h5> OVERVIEW </h5>
| + | As our project use the CRISPR-Cas9 technology, we looked for its potential huge consequences. It seemed important for us to collect the opinion of scientists, politics, patent attorney, but also of general audience. As we worked on the CRISPR-Cas9 technology, we discovered how overwhelming it could be, and ask ourselves how we could imagine a responsible way to work with this technology. |

Not only because those matters are complex, but also because we still don’t know precisely the consequences of such technologies. If CRISPR-Cas 9 is undoubtedly a revolution, the seism affects other fields, interconnected with science (ethics or law as an example). </p>
| + | Thus, we tried to find an answer in the concept of responsible research and innovation (RRI). We believe that this concept could help iGEM teams to think about responsibility in their project, and have the strongest link possible between their project and the societal need they want to reach. In other words, we wanted to bring innovation and societal need closer. Considering our project on the CRISPR-Cas9 technology, we believed the concept could give us the good questions we should ask ourselves to build a responsible project. |

| − | <p> As our project use CRISPR-Cas9 we looked for its potential huge consequences. It seemed important for us to collect the opinion of both scientists and non scientists. As we worked on CRISPR-Cas9, we discovered how overwhelming it could be, and ask ourselves how we could imagine a responsible way to work with this technology. </p>
| + | This lead us to investigate about the CRISPR-Cas9 technology and its major consequences in several fields. We tried to draw the consequences and think about what would be a responsible use for scientists but also considering the societal issues. Our Human Practices followed two goals: researching among stakeholders what would be a responsible use, and popularising science for public.

| − | <p> Thus, we tried to find an answer in the concept of responsible research and innovation (RRI). We believe that this concept could help iGEM teams to think about responsability in their project. Considering our project on CRISPR-Cas9, we believed the concept could give us the good questions we should ask ourselves to build a responsible project. As their is no general responsible rules than can be applied to all project we developed a RRI test : this test works as a feed-back for each iGEM projects, in order to improve the responsability in the long term. </p>
| + | As there is no general responsible rules than can be applied to all project we developed a "Responsible Research and Innovation test": this test works as a feed-back for each iGEM projects, in order to improve the responsibility in the long term. Thus, we gave this test to iGEM teams from all over the world, and collected their answers, in order to have the best picture of the respect of RRI principles by iGEM teams. |

| − | <p>iGEM teams are leading in the area of Human Practices because they conduct their projects within a social/environmental context, to better understand issues that might influence the design and use of their technologies.</p>
| + | |
| − | <p>Teams work with students and advisors from the humanities and social sciences to explore topics concerning ethical, legal, social, economic, safety or security issues related to their work. Consideration of these Human Practices is crucial for building safe and sustainable projects that serve the public interest. </p>
