0. Project motivation -What is humanity?-
What do you think humanity is?
This is a common question which human have tried for long time. Answer might be different in each person.
According to LONGMAN dictionary, humanity means,
“the state of being human rather than an animal or machine. For example, kindness, respect and sympathy towards others.”
Then is it really impossible for the other livings to have those?
Tokyo Tech 2010 challenged this question.
We designed E. coli with humanity in order to prove that sympathetic doesn’t exist only in human!
