About Me & the ProjectMegan Walker || NC State - Business & Marketing
This website was built as my final for HON 296: Ethics of Biotechnical Communication as part of the University Honors Program at NC State Why genetically engineered pets? Many reasons! Most importantly, I am an avid animal lover and the idea of a GloFish is very interesting to me. Taking a close look at the pet industry and the ways in which it may be reshaped by advancements in genetical engineering provided the perfect opportunity for me think critically about the space where ethics, communication, and responsibility intersect. |
