The iGEM competition is devoted to the advancement of synthetic biology, specifically in standardized parts-based research. It welcomes participants from institutions of higher education from around the world. Just as important as contributing to the understanding of molecular biology based engineering is contributing to a framework which allows applications of this knowledge to be implemented in a manner that serves society. As we address human practices on our wiki we give a brief overview of synthetic biology, list areas in human practice commonly recognized as needing address, pose questions for discussion associated with those areas, and outline two ways the iGEM community can take fundamental actions. These actions involve a broader education of iGEM participants, and the dissemination of knowledge in our educational and public communities.
