Difference between revisions of "Team:AHUT China/Practices"

Our team have made a lot of vivid and detailed introductions which involved in some interesting knowledge about syenthetic biology to the freshman. During the period of publicity ,they showed great enthusiasm and asked questions actively, we answered each of the various questions about IGEM with patience. At the same time,our team members have also given several presentations to let them experience the atmosphere of final competition.

Time: 2015.9.10-2015.9.12
Location: A high school in Maanshan City Anhui Province, China

In order to expand the influence of iGEM game, we went to some of the high schools are receiving military training to students on synthetic biology knowledge, and introduce our project, and they are generating a lot of interest, and we with them to do a lot of interesting organism experiment, which makes them even more profound understanding of synthetic biology and IGEM competition.

Ⅰ.

Questionnaire survey, about 36.08% of people think that biotechnology effects on human life has a positive effect, 58.08% of people believe that at the same time has a positive and the negative side, only 2.4% of people hold a negative attitude. In life science research should focus on what aspects of the issue, the answer is most of the medical and health and environmental protection. And about synthetic biology or igem, only very few people have a deep understanding to them (6.29%), the vast majority of people say never concern (78.74%) or have been focused on (14.97%). This suggests that people support the development of biotechnology, but understanding of synthetic biology is not too much.

At the same time, related health problems, according to the results of the survey about 87.72% of people have the consciousness of prevention of disease, but don't know much about the knowledge of all kinds of diseases and health. In choosing drugs, 85.33% natural medicine, more trust that natural medicine has the side effect is small, cure the disease and low relative to the synthetic drug price advantages. When asked about when we improve the effective ingredients of natural medicine program, about 80% of people backed, think this is raising the popularity of natural medicines, conducive to disease control and prevention, and promote the positive role in drug development.

ⅠⅠ.

Questionnaire survey shows that people support the development of biotechnology, think life science research should be more focus on two aspects of medical and health and environmental protection. But for synthetic biology or IGEM, but not many people know about. At the same time, on health, the vast majority of people have awareness of disease prevention, but not for all kinds of diseases and health knowledge too much understanding. When people is choosing drugs more trust in natural medicine, think they have a lot of advantage. And about our project to increase the effective components in natural drugs output, people is more of a support attitude.
