Survey with ETH Zürich team

Despite being a small country, Switzerland has not less than four national languages. In addition to that, it also benefits from a large pool of cultures from all around the world. When/While we were looking for the opinion of the public about synthetic biology and our project, it would have been a shame not to take advantage from this diversity. Hopefully, the ETH Zürich team had the same interest in the public opinion as ours for their project. As we were about to hold a stand in Lausanne’s (French speaking part of Switzerland) street, our teams therefore developed together a survey integrating general questions as well as more specific questions relative to our projects. The survey was big success, so we decided to go one step further and organized another similar event in Basel (Swiss-German speaking part of Switzerland) with the ETH Zürich team. Doing so allowed us to gather the opinion of even more people and helped us investigating the difference between the populations of those two cities. Find more information about our results on the ETHZ wiki or on our Human Practices page.



Getting ready for the Giant Jamboree: After the survey in Basel, the EHTZ team invited us to visit their lab. We performed a simulation of our presentations for Boston in order to get used to talking about our projects to other synthetic biologists, and of course to get rid of this stage fright!
