Deutsches Museum Munich

We had the chance to introduce the Physco Filter and our iGEM team to the public at the visitors lab at the German Museum of Munich. Especially green biotechnology is perceived rather negatively in Germany, but the majority of expressed concers relates to applications in agriculture and food. So we set up a discussion board where people could comment on these issues to see if projects like the Physco Filter can bring a different perspective into the public debate about biotechnology.

Survey on the public perception of biotechnology

The public perception of biotechnology in Germany is traditionally not very positive. But how much do people know about sythetic biology and are red, white and green biotechnology perceived equally postive or negative? On iGEM day Germany, we set out to inform, explain and investigate. How much impact does the pollution of water through pharmaceuticals and hormones have on people´s private life as well as globally according to public opinion? And would projects like our Physco Filter that adresses these problems increase the acceptance of sythetic biology or not? Would people want to use our filter or support its use in public sewage plants? Here is what we found out:
