Mapping variation in dual use risk assessments of synthetic biology projects by Daniel Greene, Tessa Alexanian , Megan J. Palmer , Megan J. Palmer 

“…However, there is little empirical research on how real-world projects score on DURC assessments, the extent to which reviewers agree or disagree about risks for a given project, or how risk judgments map to recommended risk management strategies. By studying the process of DURC risk assessment, it may be possible to develop methods that are more consistent, accurate, and cost-effective.MethodsUsing a modified version of the framework in the Companion Guide to the United States Government Policies for Oversight of Life Sciences Dual Use Research of Concern, we elicited detailed reviews from 18 experienced DURC reviewers and 49 synthetic biology students of the risks, benefits, and recommended risk management strategies for four real-world synthetic biology projects.ResultsWe found significant variation among experts, as well as between experts and students, in both perceived DURC risk and recommended risk management strategies. …”
