Team:Toronto/PnP

Policy and Practices

This year our team sought to create a dialogue with individuals of various backgrounds to understand how the technology developed in this project will affect and be affected by them. We also engaged and educated the public through a bioinformatics camp, an Icon-a-thon, and a five episode podcast called Synversations.

Bioinformatics Workshop

We introduced high school students to everything from ethics and genetics to university life and programs at UofT. We emphasised the real world applications of everything students learned with us that day and it proved successful.

Podcasts

On our inaugural season of Synversations we talk to grad students, religious figures, community leaders, and many more to understand how biotechnology would affect their communities and to clear up some misconceptions about it.

Icon-a-thon

In the hopes of educating a typically scientifically uneducated public and to address a lack of biotechnology related icons we hosted a day long Icon-a-thon. The unique and attractive icons can be found in the wiki and are a testament to the need for diverse ways of reaching out to the public.
