Engineers work in laboratories, designing and building robots, splicing DNA and manipulating nano and micro technology. Engineering is a major part of many contemporary innovation processes.<\/p>\n<p>We might say that in doing their work, and through the innovation processes that they are part of, engineers are writing history, and in doing so a huge responsibility sits upon their shoulders. As more and more voices lend their weight to the call for &#8220;responsible innovation&#8221;, and a community of scholars and practitioners adopt the &#8220;RI&#8221; cause, what role should engineers and their professional organizations play in this debate?<\/p>\n<p>Bassetti Foundation Foreign Correspondent Jonathan Hankins addresses these issues with a <a href=\"http:\/\/spectrum.ieee.org\/tech-talk\/at-work\/innovation\/what-does-responsible-innovation-mean\" title=\"IEEE Spectrum\">guest post on the IEEE-Spectrum website<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>(photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/vathis\/15223336584\/\" title=\"cc -
