We held a workshop in Hokkaido University Festival from June 2 to June 5, 2016. This event aims to answer questions "What is DNA?", "What is Gene Recommbination?" and so on and deepen understanding of DNA and gene recommbination. We condctuded a poster session, a easy experiment, "Detection of DNA extraction from banana" and crafting, "crafting DNA strap".
After the activities, we took the survey and got 117 answers
On 7th August, university’s open day for mainly high school students (called “Open Campus” in Japan), we gave a lecture and took a questionnaire. In the lecture, we explained what gene recombination is and about this year’s our project. According to the questionnaire, we can see that majority had an adverse impression on gene recombination before the lecture, however, more than 90% of visitors appreciated its usefulness by the end. Also, more than 90% of the people answered they acquired new knowledge about gene, DNA, protein and gene recombination. Based on these statistics, we consider that we accomplished contributing to the public understanding about gene and its recombination – topics which still raise anxiety amongst many people in Japan probably due to ignorance. We believe that our efforts will help people create a society in the future that utilizes gene recombination.
On a scale of 1 (do not consider, low and bad) to 10 (heavily consider, high, good)
Beside of today's lecture, do you have any idea for the application of GMO?

We condctuded a poster session, a easy experiment, "Detection of DNA extraction from banana" and crafting, "crafting DNA strap".
Experiment
Participants can see the DNA on their eyes and feel more familiar to DNA.protocol
 |
- Crush one third of banana with spoon; to break its cell wall.
- Mix well 10% saltine water 30 mL and detergent 2.5 mL; Saltine water makes nucleic acid and salt. Detergent breaks cell membrane.
- Pour 1 and 2 into a beaker through coffee filter and filtrate them.
- After 5 minutes or so, pour 100% ethanol 40 mL into the beaker slowly.
- Then you’ll see some white lump. That’s exactly the DNA!!
Crafting
Participants craft a DNA strap and learn the structure of DNA. They can bring their work to home.

Comments
Participant1
Age: 10’s / Sex: M
Score before workshop:5
Because genetically modified foods is a little scary.
Score after workshop:8
Because I don't care if it's safe.
Participant2
Age: 20’s / Sex: F
Score before workshop:0
Because it may bad for the health.
Score after workshop:6
Because it's safe to eat.
Participant3
Age: 40’s / Sex: F
Score before workshop:3
Because I suspect genetically modified foods or crops,harmful to noxious insects,is also harmful to human beings.
Score after workshop:N/A
Because I can't answer because I didin't have time to see your poster.
Participant4
Age: 10’s / Sex: M
Score before workshop:3
I thought human being should not enter the territory of the gene.
Score after workshop:6
I thought whether it have bad effect on the environment depends on how we use it,and we can make our life more convenient without the effect.
Participant5
Age: 10’s / Sex: F
Score before workshop:4
Because it will have effect on the ecosystem.
Score after workshop:7
Because I understood that it can give various functions useful for human being.
Participant6
Age: 20’s / Sex: F
Score before workshop:3
Because It may bad for the health.
Score after workshop:6
Though It may unhealthy to eat, I feel it acceptable.
Participant7
Age: 10’s / Sex: F
Score before workshop:6
Because there're indications whether the food such as soybeans use genetic modification.
Score after workshop:8
Because It was really fun to see real DNA.
Participant8
Age: 20’s / Sex: F
Score before workshop:5
It's very useful if we use it in right way but It'll cause problems if we don't.
Score after workshop:5
The same reason.
Participant9
Age: 30’s / Sex: F
Score before workshop:5
I can't say good or bad.
Score after workshop:5
My child is in hospital because of a genopathy. I hope more and more remedies are dveloped to save lives.

Beside of today's lecture, do you have any idea for the application of GMO?
- I have had the negative image for genetically modified food. But I learned they can take the place of limited resources. I don't have any ideas now (I'm sorry). I hope that you do your best.
- Creating flowers which have diverse colors
- Recreating organisms lived at past
- Creating nutritious food
- If genetic modification is applied to people who are born weak, they may be able to overcome diseases.
- Apply genetic modification to medicine
- The regenerative ability like the tail of a lizard (Perhaps It has already realized).The regenerative ability like the tail of a lizard (Perhaps It has already realized).
- Producing a large quantity of good cocoons of silkworms
- Creating the bacteria which makes the concentration of carbon dioxide of sea water lower/Evolution of human beings/Creating livestock which eat less food and water and grow fast
- People will use all oil someday. So I think creating the material instead of plastic and using generally it by genetic modification are good ideas.
- If we can select or create the gene which resist cancer cells, we may be able to apply it to wide medical cures.
