Visits of the general public in our lab
In addition, we showed them the lab and described in a large scale what synthetic biology is and how we were applying it to solve the e-waste pollution issue. We also explained how our project could be implemented in several other areas, such as mining, and the benefits it could bring as a more environment-friendly alternative. With this, our aim was to show people all the possibilities synthetic biology has and how the different issues we are facing every day can be solved.
