Penn State iGEM 2010
This year Penn State iGEM created a survey about Genetically Modified Organisms(GMOs) in Agriculture. The survey included questions about where and when GMOs should be used, GMOs containing a lysis device, and other questions dealing with the the use of GMOs. For this survey, we decided we wanted to get a random sample of college aged students from around the world. Other teams were asked to participate in sending our survey to a group of random students from their respective schools. Eight schools showed interest in helping us distribute the surveys but in the end they never gave their full effort on this project.
Overall, we were able to gather a broad array of information that can be portrayed to show the general beliefs of college aged students on the principles of GMOs, research involving genetic engineering, and the use of a lysis device to be implemented in bacteria.
Documentation of the students who worked on the survey can be found on our safety page.
