[[Team:TU_Delft/Safety/in-the-lab|Biological safety]] in research is taken very seriously in our lab. We also considered the influence of our work outside of this protected area. For example, what are the [[Team:TU_Delft/Safety/ethics|ethical implications]] of our project? What is the [[Team:TU_Delft/Safety/survey|opinion of the general public]] about synthetic biology? And [[Team:TU_Delft/Safety/society/who-owns-you|what can be done with our results]] after we publish it?

Safety

Safety considerations are of great importance when working in a biological lab, and as an iGEM team working with biological material we took the necessary safety precautions and explorations very seriously. (Biological) Safety is not only limited to rules and regulations, but also follows from common sense and paying attention to detail. On our Biological safety page we further explore the possible risks, safety and security concerns connected to Synthetic Biology and specifically our project. On this page we also answer all the questions on biological safety asked by iGEM.
