Notes
BioSafety & BioSecurity
this summary is from last meeting - please add your thoughts as discussed "Won't diybio enable tomorrows bioterrorists?"
- ultralights vs. flightschool (dedicated terrorists won't be amateurs)
- better to live in world w/ lots of experts (99.999999999% who are well intentioned)
- wrong focus: bioerror way bigger threat than bioterror
- we believe in certification programs; they impose constraints, but increase the ability of people to do the activity because it is explicity allowed
model rocketry
- ham radio
- recreational diving
- ultralight flying
- Food for thought: what activites are allowed without a license? Exploratory bio, sure, but what about transforming dna purchased from the already-regulated synthesis companies?
That's about it. I'd like to schedule a group chat specifically about diygem teams this thursday evening est - does that work for everyone interested (alec, jasonm, meredith, etc.)?
-Mac
Action Items
- Mac: get project description q/a from each person via email
- Mac: start list that keeps track of calls for "biohacking papers, presentations, posters, etc"
- Jason M: draft email to Biogen Idec about DIYbio field trip
- eveyone: use doodle to schedule next meeting
