News & Publication by 2015 Ecsite Conference
The report paints the picture of a successful edition. In their feedback, participants urged conference organisers to look into two questions: the event's environmental impact, and the need to widen its thematic horizons by encouraging speakers from outside the science engagement field to join.
Which participatory initiatives have been undertaken in the field of synthetic biology (SynBio) so far? What is the impact of these engagement activities? Which roles do science centres play in the dialogue on broader societal implications of emerging technologies? These and many more questions were addressed in the session on public engagement with synthetic biology, which was held on June 13, 2015 during the Ecsite Annual Conference in Science Museum MUSE, Italy.
