- | As the Sweet DNA activity went down so well with the schoolchildren during our Science Stars workshops (link here, either following in brackets or making the text ‘Science Stars workshops’ link to Science Stars page), we decided to repeat it once more. Only this time, the kids could actually take away and eat (with their parents’ permission!) their double-helix DNA made out of sweets! We made sure to have at least three team members manning the stall, meaning that whilst the children were busy making their sweet DNA, one team member could talk them through what they were doing and explain how the model that they were making relates to the real structure of DNA. At the same time, the other two team members would have conversations with their parents/guardians, explaining what synthetic biology is, what the iGEM competition is and describing our project in more detail. We also encouraged the people we spoke to to share their concerns, if any, about the use of synthetic biology.<br><br> | + | As the Sweet DNA activity went down so well with the schoolchildren during our Science Stars workshops (link here, either following in brackets or making the text ‘Science Stars workshops’ link to Science Stars page), we decided to repeat it once more.

| The event was a huge success! Over 700 people visited the open day, and our stall was constantly busy for at least 4 hours. We even had to run out to buy more supplies! We were lucky enough to speak to loads of people about what it is we’re doing over the summer break, and many visitors were fascinated by the potential of synthetic biology. One visitor in particular, a biology teacher who retired before the boom of biotechnology, was amazed by how far the science had come in such a relatively short space of time. People complimented the attractiveness and clarity of our poster and used the information on it to ask us questions, both about the palm oil industry and also about synbio in general. Of course, the children loved their sweet DNA gift too! <br><br> | | The event was a huge success! Over 700 people visited the open day, and our stall was constantly busy for at least 4 hours.
