Agenda Highlights:

The second Systems Mapping workshop proved the importance of engaging new perspectives to the approach. In a small setting, every participant had the opportunity to share their expertise. This led to constructive and thought-provoking discussions about the societal impacts of New Genomic Techniques, the position of science in the debate, and many other topics. Filled with new insights, the coming months will be used to further develop the Systems Maps
