<div class="w3-row-padding w3-padding-64 w3-container">
<p>iGEM teams are leading in the area of Human Practices because they conduct their projects within a social/environmental context, to better understand issues that might influence the design and use of their technologies.</p>

Publicize our project at highschool

On the 13th-14th October we decided to advertise our project in the school. We took our poster on the floor which had the most traffic of students and the school members who were interested in the project could receive further pieces of information and fill out our survey. Fortunately, many students were eager to gain more information, which really inspired us.

Giving a lecture to Nobel Laurate Prof. Bert Sakmann

On the 20th of April, we had the possibility to give a presentation to Mr. Bert Sakmann and Dr. Arthur Konnerth about our project. The scientists were very interested in this topic, therefore they asked us many inquiring questions, and advised us, which was a great honour for us. As Professor Sakmann regularly visits the Szeged Scientist Academy's events, we should inform him about the results in December this year. Some of our school members also participated in this presentation, and they were amazed that such a great project takes place in their school.

Lecture to University Students

Two members of our team represented our scientific research work in our hometown, at the Department of Biology at the University of Szeged on the 19th of October. For our greatest pleasure, university students were extremely eager to know about our scientific project. After our presentation, they asked a lot of interesting questions that made our members more enthusiastic. Approximately 250 students were present in our lecture. This opportunity make it possible for our team to develop communication skills and to raise young people's interests and widen their knowledge about synthetic biology.

 

Survey

We created an opinion survey in order to have a better idea of the perception of GMOs and methane by the public. The survey was available for anyone online and has been filled out approximately 250 times.

It is important to mention that the majority of responses come from Hungary and almost 30% of the interviewees are under 18.
