What do woolly mammoth hunters, iGEM, George Church, and dog cloning have in common? For the first time, they appear together in a full-length award-winning documentary: Genesis 2.0. The film touches on topics that have always surrounded genetic technologies, (including ethics, economic standing, 'playing god') and is bound to draw mixed reactions both from the public and within the iGEM community. We want to know what you think of the film. What human practices issues do you see reflected on in the film? What issues should the film have addressed? How would you engage around such issues? Join the conversation: Through our Human Practices program, iGEM has always encouraged not just discussion and reflection, but integration of ethical considerations to the entire practice of synthetic biology. Learn more about Human Practices at iGEM. Were you at #iGEM2016? On the lighter side: If you were at the 2016 Giant Jamboree, you might find yourself in this film!
