Some of the main questions that arise when teams are developing a synthetic biology project are: where to go (institutions)?; under what legal framework for both scientific research and commercial projects do we proceed?; what kind of ethical challenges can we find, and how to introduce these issues into the education system?.The UTP SB PROJECT 1.0 is aiming to set these questions to be asked and answered when developing a project related to synthetic biology. Our program also seeks to link the sources of information to help address these questions.

Flowchart2: It shows how do you implement the synthetic biology on your community, institution or country. It is to do some reflections about repercussions of our projects in synthetic biology on the human practices.
