Perspective on Responsible M-CELS Research Published

A group of M-CELS researchers and ethicists that came together during the 2018 EBICS M-CELS conference has recently published "Multi-cellular engineered living systems: building a community around responsible research on emergence" in Biofabrication. 

The perspective explores the ethical and societal challenges that are beginning to arise in the field of M-CELS and the need for an M-CELS community that actively addresses these aspects of the research.
