Human Practices

As part of the human practices section of the iGEM competition we wanted to know what members of the public know about synthetic biology and what they think of our project. To achieve this we have created an online survey which can be found at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/8P6NJRM . The results of this survey will be published later.
