Safety concerns with Forsyn

Foresyn is a user-friendly platform that was designed specifically for synthetic biologists to solve such issues above. Just like its name, Foresyn can foresee the targeted improvements to the users' experiment, give advise and therefore increase productivity, literally by the neoteric workflow management based on our customized database.

Q: Will Forsyn harm the human body or the environment?

A: As a software, Forsyn runs on the computer. It is safe for the human body and the environment.

Q: Is Forsyn harmful to the user's personal computer?

A: Forsyn is safe for the user's personal computer. All functions on Forsyn run on our server. Users only need to upload their files, and the server will automatically transfer the result to the user's browser.

Q: Does It Have Any Risks In Laboratory?

A: Forsyn runs as a web page. It aims to provide more detailed and comprehensive biobrick information and accurate prediction results of promoters to synthetic biologists. We won’t use any plasmid or bacteria. No wet-lab experiments and no pollution to the environment.

Q: Does Forsyn have any potential threats to users’ personal information?

A: Forsyn never collects any personal information. Users can use it freely without worrying about personal information disclosure.

Q: Will our project infringe on database copyright?

A: Not at all. We listened to Dr. Lei Ruipeng’s report on “Ethical issues and governance of synthetic biology” on CCic, and mentioned the issue of database copyright. At the same time, we also discussed with the judges about database copyright.
