<p style="font-size: 22px; font-family: josefin-sans, sans-serif;"> A quick search of drug resistance on the CDC website shows an increasing number of bacteria are becoming immune to conventional antibiotics. This is a SERIOUS problem- bacteria that cause ailments ranging from strep throat to gonorrhoeae are outsmarting us at every turn. If antibiotic resistance is not dealt with promptly, common illnesses could prove to be fatal. NU iGEM 2017 made a stride to combat these power- hungry bacteria using our work with CRISPR-Cas9 in OMVs. However, as we learned shortly after beginning the project, genetic research is a slow process and our project will need beyond the scope of 3 months to progress into the late stages.

With the time crunch placed on antibiotics, our human practice work focused on educating the greater Chicago community on our project and antibiotic resistance. We focused specifically on educating students and increasing their interest in STEM. Throughout the course of the summer, we reached out to various experts in the field of antibiotics and asked them questions. Using their answers and our newly knowledge, we then honed our curriculum and project respectively.

<p style="font-size: 22px; font-family: josefin-sans, sans-serif;"> Before we embarked on our Human Practice outreach events, we used Synenergene’s iGEMer’s Guide to the Future. Synenergene is a Mobilization and Mutual Action Plan (MMLAP) sponsored by the European commission- fancy jargon for a government sponsored program to encourage responsible research in synthetic biology. iGEMer’s Guide to the Future contains a variety of modules that go through the various ethical implications and potential long-lasting effects of an iGEM project. We decided that a Value and Stakeholder Matrix would be a beneficial module to complete. <br> <br>

The Value and Stakeholder Matrix helps frame how each stakeholder is involved in a project. The Value and Stakeholder Matrix has stakeholders (i.e. researchers, doctors, investors, etc) going down a column and values associated with the project (i.e. safety, cost, time to produce) going down rows. The goal is to rank values according to the prospective of various stakeholders and add rankings of the value at the end. We put the stakeholders for our project as “patients, doctors, researchers, public, relatives/family, investors, and manufacturers” and values as “safety, cost, time to produce, effectiveness, access, sustainability, and ease of use.” We then proceeded to rank values according to each stakeholder with “2” as most important, “1” as somewhat important, “0” as neutral, and “-“as a deterrent.

Synthetic biology is a field that permeates through various sectors of society. With a scientific goal in mind, it is crucial to take the time and understand how this objective can make changes socially, politically, economically and of course scientifically. It is also important to assess the overarching goal of this research and its future impact. By participating in outreach, collaborating with other iGEM teams around the globe and reflecting on the bigger issue of antibiotic resistance, our team reevaluated our solution to come one step closer to reaching our goal.
