The t-tripp project

Tools for Translation of Risk Research into Policies and Practices

This project aims to contribute to a better translation between science and policy to enhance the responsible development of modern biotechnology. It thereby aims to integrate societal needs and objectives in the process in order to stimulate safe and responsible industrial biotechnology products. In order to do so, we develop two tools: a protocol for inherent safe design and a serious game for biosafety and biosecurity.

About us

SafeChassis

Due to developments in synthetic biology, genetically modified micro-organisms have received increasingly complex functions, such as the production of fuels and medicines. Since these genetically modified micro-organisms are now also aimed to survive outside the lab, it is important that safety can be guaranteed.

SafeChassis is a research project that aims to build safeguards into synthetic micro-organisms. T-TRIPP works together with SafeChassis to enhance the applicability of our research results, such as the protocol for inherent safe design, for scientists.

BaSyC

Building a synthetic cell is one of the grand scientific and intellectual challenges of the 21st century. While we have extensive knowledge about the molecular building blocks that form the basis of modern life, we currently do not understand how these building blocks collectively operate to define life.

BaSyC is a 10-year research project that aims to build a synthetic cell. T-TRIPP works together with BaSyC to enhance the applicability of our research results, such as the protocol for inherent safe design, for scientists.
