Mission
An open source initiative dedicated to the inclusive and ethical growth of biotechnology.
We believe in empowering everyday people with resources to learn about leading-edge biotechnology and spark meaningful discussions about its potential impacts on humanity. Why? Because the next wave of technology will and already is changing what it means to be human. That's a discussion every human being has a natural right to be part of and shape. By equipping people and organizations with accessible information to embed ethics into their work and fostering interoperability as well as governance across fields, we can collectively coordinate a world where technology not only improves lives but also holds our humanity in the highest regard, embedded in code and by design.
