We conducted a widely targeted survey of public ranging from high school students to citizens in general with Kyoto Institute of Technology (KIT-Kyoto).
The objective of the survey are two things. One is to find how Japanese people feel or think about synthetic biology and its problems like bioethics or safety. The other is images of Radioation. We asked people who came not only from biology departments but also from various fields of study. We also asked visitors at the open campus mentioned above. Furthermore, we made it able to answer from website so that we could collect the answer from various classes.
