Abstract

The Building a Synthetic Cell (BaSyC) consortium — launched in 2017 — proposes to create “an autonomous self-reproducing cell that can sustain itself, replicate and divide”. I joined this consortium to explore the bioethics of creating synthetic cells, by embedding philosophical reflection into research practices.
