Survey about Synthetic Biology
To learn more about how the society thinks about synthetic Biology, we created an online survey and spread it on many various channels, explicitly trying to reach people with a lower educational status or a very religious perspective onto the world.
At the end we had reached the huge number of 396 participants.
As many people do not know what synthetic Biology is, we decided to add a short, clearly understandable description of the term into the survey, in order to inform people about it. The ones, who have claimed to know what synthetic Biology is, were asked to name the information sources and shortly describe the concept in their own words.
The most relevant question for us was would you buy paper which was recycled with help of Synthetic Biology?
Luckily, the results really speak in favour for our project: 298 survey-participants would buy it (94,3%), 18 not (5,7%).
Words-Cloud for our question what is synthetic Biology?
Essay on biosafety and society
We wrote an essay on biosafety, society and important factors to achieve the development of a project.
Education and Public Engagement
Have a look at the marvellous science slams we made for informing the publicity about Synthethic Biology and iGEM:
