As for the part of cognitive attitude of synthetic biology, only 6.2% of the tourists have a deeper understanding of synthetic biology, while 33.3% of the respondents have never heard of synthetic biology. The awareness rates of the selected terms about the field of synthetic biology are generally lower than 35%, of which 58.1% and 52.8% of the tourists have access to relevant knowledge through the Internet and television, respectively. 76% of the tourists agree that applying synthetic biology methods to clinical diagnosis is feasible, and 86% of the visitors are willing to use the relevant technology products if possible, the main reasons of which are rapidness, individuation and the reliable results of the new detection technology. To the contrary, the tourists who are not willing to use that detection technology mainly worry about the potential side effects, and they believe that traditional detection methods are mature enough. </p>

The majority of the population of the survey has a neutral attitude towards synthetic biology, and most of them are optimistic about the applications and progress of synthetic biology, though only a small portion of people knows this field very well. <br/>Therefore, on the one hand, it is necessary to strengthen the popularization of the knowledge of tuberculosis in public. The process of propaganda to the national for health education of tuberculosis should not be a slogan, and it should be in-depth and systematic.

| <p>By plain words, he made it easy for these children to understand the basic concepts of biological field and the core ideas of synthetic biology. What is the basic substance of life? What caused creatures on the earth so diversified and fascinating? Moreover, can scientists build life with fancy functions? They got the answers to all these questions above.</p> | | <p>By plain words, he made it easy for these children to understand the basic concepts of biological field and the core ideas of synthetic biology.

| <p>More than 60 students who were interested in science have attended the lecture. They were confronted with the choice of their major fields in the university, so the lecture really helped them. Ye combined the basic concepts of synthetic biology with what they had learned in school. After the lecture, a heated discussion about biology and future life began. What’s more, the project of Peking iGEM team this year was presented, for the purpose of arousing their interest in this field. </p> | | <p>More than 60 students who were interested in science have attended the lecture.

After that, we give a brief description of the history of synthetic biology, combined with its application. In such a small handbook, many vivid but scientific pictures are shown. We did our best to make the words easy to be understood but rigorous.</p> | | <p>In the handbook, we introduce the basic information of tuberculothesis, such as route of transmission, diagnosis methods and its treatment, along with the national policies of free diagnosis and treatment on tuberculosis.
