At iGEM we believe societal considerations should be upfront and integrated throughout the design and execution of synthetic biology projects. “Human Practices” refers to iGEM teams’ efforts to actively consider how the world affects their work and the work affects the world. Through your Human Practices activities, your team should demonstrate how you have thought carefully and creatively about whether your project is responsible and good for the world. We invite you to explore issues relating (but not limited) to the ethics, safety, security, and sustainability of your project, and to show how this exploration feeds back into your project purpose, design and execution.

<p>On this page, your team should document all of your Human Practices work and activities. You should write about the Human Practices topics you considered in your project, document any activities you conducted to explore these topics (such as engaging with experts and stakeholders), describe why you took a particular approach (including referencing any work you built upon), and explain if and how you integrated takeaways from your Human Practices work back into your project purpose, design and/or execution. </p>

High throughput screening of cfDNA of cancer
As we all know, when designing a product, it is essential to understand who will use it. With this question, we contacted Dr. Zhong in the hospital, and she helped us to get useful suggestions from professional doctors, who may use the high-throughput screen of cancer detection in their work. They told us every product has its suitable candidates, when it comes to our cancer detection thoughts, people whose family has cancer history and those who always work in an environment full of a large amount of radiation are the primary users. It undoubtedly helped us solve the problem of what kind of people should we focus on. They also pointed out that in real life, this technology can well predict cancer easily, but if the users want to make sure of it, imaging data is necessary. We didn't think of this a safety problem before, so once we make it a product, we will emphasize the work of predict but bot a diagnosis. Furthermore, the hospitals may be the first user of this product because of the straightforward approach of cancer detection, so we intend to help each other for long.
As we are undergrads who don’t have many experiences in the lab, Dr. Zhong also showed up in our lab to give advice.

Figure 6. Dr. Zhong showed up in our lab.
Figure 7. Ask advice about our project.
Heavy Metal Detection in Water
As citizens in China, we have seen some shocking scenes of water pollution just because factories pull wastewater directly into the drinkable water. Though the government public laws and paid more attention to this situation several years ago, citizens still have some concerns about the water they drink. To know the water quality of our district, we went to the environmental protection bureau and water factories for information about heavy metal pollution of water resource, which would help a lot in making our project heavy metal detection in water into reality. They told us the number of heavy metals in water is low enough to drink, but most of the detection methods are about chemistry, detecting heavy metal in water with biology has excellent prospects, and it’s a good choice for us to keep on with the project. To know more about water quality around the world and relevant safety problems, we sent emails to IUCN, EEA and so on. Through our efforts, we realized most developed countries don’t have such concerns, and developing countries have the main populations who concern about this issue which helped us ensure our projects direction. What’s more, the product also has the potential to be used by relevant organizations and professionals.
