Collections provide another method of navigating material related to synthetic biology on this website. The collections are made up of items, including academic papers, filmed interviews, and media commentary, that have been grouped in relation to a particular topic. These topics range from problems that synthetic biologists are pursuing, such as inquiry into how to design living things, and controversial debates, such as discussion on limits to designing living things. Items can belong to many different collections, which can be viewed on the individual item pages, and this creates a conceptual map of interconnected problems and debates. When uploading material to Ars Synthetica, collections provide an excellent way to contextualize scientific and human practices arguments.
