Dear all,
<br>
<br>A small something from Edinburgh to coax you through the autumnal Wednesday
<br>afternoons. The European Biotechnology & Society seminar series will run at
<br>13:00 - 14:00 (BST/GMT) on six Wednesdays from 30th September to 4th
<br>November.
<br>
<br>The series is being convened by Thoko Kamwendo, Ros Attenborough and myself in
<br>collaboration with a synthetic biology, systems biology and industrial
<br>biotechnology funding programme, ERA CoBioTech, as
<br>part of our work on responsible research &
<br>innovation. Its goal is to draw the humanities and social sciences, biologists
<br>and policy practitioners into conversation to examine some of the social,
<br>political, environmental, economic, and ethical dimensions of biotechnology in
<br>Europe.
<br>
<br>The full programme of speakers is available
<br>here and among which you will
<br>hopefully recognise some familiar, and excellent, STS folks.
<br>
<br>Registration is being managed by our funding partner, so please do sign up
<br>here.
<br>
<br>Oh, and just in case you didn’t get enough screen time during the day,
<br>there’s a ‘pub’ on one of the evenings…the 28th October.
<br>
<br>Sorry to be the bearer of more screen-based material, but then, it seems this
<br>is what we have these days. It would be great to see some of you there.
<br>
<br>With best wishes,
<br>
<br>Rob
<br>
<br>—
