Latest revision as of 00:00, 2 November 2017
As mentioned previously, our goal was to actively engage the scientific community and the general public to assure that our project is safe, responsible and good for the world. This was among other things made possible through public presentations and active dialogues at events & conferences. A big applause to everyone that made these events possible!
You can find a more detailed overview over all the events or conferences that we have organised and participated in below:
Nordic iGEM Conference
The Nordic iGEM Conference (NiC) is an annual meetup for all nordic teams from Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark.
The 9 -11th of June Incell hosted the conference at the Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, in which enriching workshops were held along with a mini-Jamboree to gather feedback on each other’s projects.
On the last night, a gala dinner was organised as a final opportunity for the different Nordic iGEM teams to bond.
Lecture Session: Synthetic Biology
Synapse - Life Science Connect is a non-profit student organization based in Copenhagen. with focus on bridging the gap between student and the life science industry.
On the 27th of September, in collaboration with Synapse, inCell hosted a lecture session on synthetic biology at The Maersk Tower in Copenhagen with the attendance of Associate Professors Rasmus John Normand Frandsen and Christopher Workman from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), co-founder and CSO of Biosyntia Hans Gene and DTU BioBuilders 2017.
The event introduced the participants to the area of synthetic biology from both an academic and industrial perspective. Moreover, a presentation of the framework of the iGEM competition, its past and future was given, as an introduction to the project presentations of DTU BioBuilders 2017 and Incell.
Vartovs Videnskab - Ethics and Future of Synthetic Biology
Vartovs Videnskab (VV) is a small organization driven by Jamila Lilja and Anna Øhlenschlæger, that arranges evening events on scientific topics for a diverse group of young, old, science nerds, curious minds and entrepreneurs.
The 21th of September inCell and Vartovs Videnskab hosted an evening in the sign of synthetic biology for more than 130 individuals.. First, a presentation to Incell’s project was given by team members Jon and Sissel. Subsequently, an insight into synthetic biology’s “green” future was given by Postdoc in plant biochemistry at the University of Copenhagen Thomas Laursen. Thereafter, associate Professor in Philosophy at the University of Copenhagen Sune Holm shared his thoughts on the ethical considerations related to synthetic biology and addressed the need of public discussion of the future of synthetic biology.
A panel discussion gave the participants the opportunity to directly raise questions on the future of synthetic biology in regards to, among other things,artificial intelligence, robotics, IP rights and the public GMO debate in Denmark.
Ungdommens Naturvidenskabelige Forening (UNF)
Spreading the knowledge of the synthetic biology is an very important mission for the inCell team. We think that it is particularly important to communicate and discuss synthetic biology with the younger generations and future scientists/practitioners of science.
Therefore, we teamed up with the former iGEM team of University of Copenhagen, Cosmocrops, to communicate the topic of synthetic biology and our respectice iGEM projects to Ungdommens Naturvidenskabelige Forening (UNF) - the association of science for youth, ranging from high school to university.
SDU Wiki writing workshop
The 30th of August, the 2017 iGEM Team representing the Southern University of Denmark hosted a workshop focusing on the ethical aspects of synthetic biology and good practices for the coding of the wiki.
This event inspired many insights that we subsequently integrated into our project.
