Responsible Innovation in Synthetic Biology: concepts, concerns and commercialism

生物伦理学探索合成生物学的负责任发展及其在高等生物中的应用。学术研究和商业应用之间关系的社会伦理探索，以及责任如何影响从一个到另一个的转变。政府对生物技术的政策和治理，以及对知识经济的推动。合成生物学和可持续增长的生物经济，考虑到对建筑、水等环境方面的影响，以及在减轻疾病方面使用基因驱动。这些技术承诺为经济做出贡献，解决气候变化和食品安全等重大社会问题，并彻底改变医疗保健，这些都是需要进行批判性审查和反思的领域。

Bioethical exploration of the responsible development of synthetic biology and its application to higher organisms. A socio-ethical exploration of the relationships between academic research and commercial application and how responsibility impacts on the shift from one to the other. Government policy and governance of biotechnology, and the drive towards a knowledge economy. Synthetic biology and the bioeconomy of sustainable growth, considering impacts on environmental aspects such as architecture, water, and the use of gene drives in disease mitigation. The promises made for these technologies to contribute to the economy, address major societal concerns such as climate change and food security, and revolutionise healthcare are all areas that are open to critical examination and reflection.
