Conference:
CCiC:
During Aug. 25 - 28, 2017, CCiC conference was organized and held by Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University in Fuzhou, China. Our team, BNU-China, had the chance to attend the event. During the conference, we introduced our project to the other xx teams.

In the conference, each team conducted in-depth communication and exchanged ideas on their own projects. The inspiring spark collided by thoughts and innovation among the teams made the attendees reap substantial benefits. After careful preparation, we dissected our project into following parts, background, project, design, modeling and human practice. Meantime, we also held open attitude towards the sincere suggestions and comments from other teams.
In the conference, not only did we strengthen the relationship with FAFU-CHINA, but we established new bonds with other teams as well. And the communication and mutual learning among the teams provided us with the opportunity to broaden our horizon and help us acquaint more people with our project.
Other Conferences:
Other than the CCiC conferences, we’ve also participated in some other academic events, including 2017 National Academic Conference for Cell Biology(Chinese Society For Cell Biology, CSCB), 2017 Synthetic Biology Summer Camp(Center for Synthetic Biology Engineering Research, CSynBER), xxx(国科大), meet-up with Team Tsinghua and Team Tsinghua-A .We took every chance to have our project scrutinized by experts, researchers, and other iGEMers. At the same time, we’ve deepened our understandings on synthetic biology and areas related to our project.

Investigation:
During the CCiC presentation, we were inspired by the wide-ranging examination on biosafety issue team Peking presented. Considering the possible application of our system, we’ve decided to conduct an investigation on the perception of average customers held towards the biosafety issues on daily-life-related enzyme containing products.
Other Conferences:
We independently designed an online questionnaire, collected 451 responses and analyzed the data using SOJUMP. The analysis is as follows.
Demographic Variables：
1. Gender and Age █████████████████████████这里想要加粗显示███████████████████████
The male-female ratio of respondents was not the ideal 1:1. This result might be caused by the imbalanced gender composition of our school, but we don’t think this imbalance have a major impact on the overall outcomes. Other than that, this is a interesting character of our school. The respondents were of all ages, whereas the majority population (78%) were young people between 18 to 29 years old.
Gender and age composition
2. Occupation █████████████████████████这里想要加粗显示███████████████████████
The respondents were from all sorts of fields with a majority make-up of students (84%), owing to our educational surroundings.
Ocupation
3. Education Qualification █████████████████████████这里想要加粗显示███████████████████████
In the sample population, the educational qualification of majority was undergraduate degree or above, accounting for 77.17% of all respondents.
Education qualification
General Awareness：
Most of the respondents had heard of biological enzyme preparation. 23% had a certain understanding of the it. Only 18% had no idea of this concept.
General awareness
Application Fields:
Almost all of the respondents knew that there ewre enzymes in food and medicine. In addition, quite a few people knew the enzymes could be used in environmental protection due to the risen attention paid to this area.
Application fields known by the participants
Advantages:
In most people's opinion, the advantages of biological enzymes were the high efficiency of the production process and the high purity of the product.
Advantages of biological enzyme preparation known by the participants
Products:
Survey results showed that the common product as detergent, beer, yogurt and medicine had received more attention in daily life.
Biological enzyme preparation products known by the participants
Safety Consideration：
Nearly half chose to believe in the safety of biological enzyme preparations. While the other half said it depended on the situation, and only a tiny minority did not believe in the safety of the enzyme preparation.
Safety consideration of the biological enzyme preparation
According the survey, most of the respondents who didn’t fully believe in the safety of biological enzyme preparation were lack of the knowledge and understanding of it.
Reasons for concerns over biological enzyme production
Therefore, we believed that we could increase the public's awareness of biology enzyme preparation by promoting the knowledge of biological enzymes. So that people could gradually trust the safety of enzyme preparation.
Cross analysis between safety consideration and general awareness
Acceptance Degree：
This question is based on the question ‘Do you believe that the biology enzyme preparation is safe and reliable’. If the respondents didn’t take a skeptical attitude towards the biology enzyme preparation, we would raise the question to know more about whether the respondents were really willing to accept and use the products of enzyme preparation. According the survey, we found that more than half of the respondents would like to accept the products, the other said it still depends on the situation. We think the result is quite reasonable and acceptable.
Distribution of degree of acceptance
Impacts on daily life：
Only 9% of the respondents hold the view that the biology enzyme preparation has nothing to do with their life. Most of the respondents believed that biological enzymes had a certain effect on their lives. This suggests that the majority of respondents' opinions on this questionnaire are valid and worthy of reference.
