Survey

As part of the workshop held with group of high school students, the present survey was completed in order to gauge the general perception towards synthetic biology, with particular emphasis on high school students taking biology as a subject. It was administrated before and after a seminar on Synthetic Biology and was designed to answer the following question: how does ones level of education regarding synthetic biology affect their perception of the ethical and safety issues that surround the technology?



This question was asked before and after our seminar was present and resulted in some very interesting responses, but most importantly (as we had hoped) every one answered this question with a yes after the workshop.




Prior to the discussion the responses to this question were quiet equally distributed, with problems with misuse, ethical concerns and unpredictable behaviour taking precedent. This may be due to the fact the majority of the students did not quiet understand what synthetic biology involved. However after the seminar when the question was asked again it seemed that the unpredictable nature of synthetic biology technology was the biggest concern.
