*Collaboration:

We have collaborated with iGEM ULaval for modelling: We have collaborated with iGEM NBC with Human Practices: We hosted a Mini Jamboree with iGEM ULaval and iGEM Queen's University: In both collaborations we are grateful for the exchange of skills, resources, knowledge and iGEM experience which made our project stronger.

*Human Practices:.

Our Human Practices team thought carefully and creatively about our project and design. We acknowledged our areas of expertise and lack of. Through consultation with professionals such as Dr.Brandiff Caron, our technology ethicist or Wassimy at D3 for responsible interview question development, we were able to strengthen and build skills in these areas. Reaching out to the public via interviews was invaluable. Speaking with community and addiction counsellors, academics, industry leaders and medical professionals transformed our project as we learned more about who our customer is and how we can help them. We also obtained ethical approval for social studies with human research subjects from Concordia University
