Biohacking Code of Conduct
From London Hackspace Wiki
We have been invited to give our views on a possible DIYBio code of conduct. http://groups.google.com/group/london-hack-space/browse_thread/thread/e5f41cdda8b7146b/bbd26dcba4761a4b?lnk=gst&q=diybio#bbd26dcba4761a4b

Notes
- Cathy the Hackspace ethicist has offered her help.
Discussion
- GILDA: our representatives should be scientists and/or people who already have practical experience of biohacking. We shouldn't be represented by anyone who will talk about perceived or imagined problems.
- BUGS: as a science-type-person, I'd be very interested in going along.
