Hsu,Chien-Yu (Ditto)
Chien-Yu gets the face totally like Ditto! Chien-Yu is an eager and quick leaner which could fit in anything with Ditto style smiling face! She mainly helps our modeling, codes CSS and javascript of wiki pages, makes a McHug demo video and designs jamboree PowerPoint. A kind and helpful person always gives the hands to any team members who need.
Our Team
Our team consists of 11 members majoring in biomedical sciences or electronic engineering to represent CGU participating in iGEM. We are resourceful, thriving on challenge and eager leaners. Everyone brings what he or she has learned into full play. After interdisciplinary brainstorm for several months, we hope to contribute to the society and world by providing another possibility of adjuvant during the iGEM project.



Lu, Ying-Hsuan (Charmander)
When she is jogging, you will find out a Charmander style runner. She starts up and leads the team. Make product animation, wiki writer, back up for team communication and industry visit, PS designer, and also carry out in vivo experiment. Not very thoughtful and even crazy sometimes but willing to embrace all comments and advice.

She is as keen as Vulpix. Like a problem sensor
that quickly finds the logical mistake, stops our crazy ideas
and keeps our feet on the ground. She also keeps an eye on
our team accounts and expenses cautiously.
She specializes in virus which helps a lot with our
project design. With a sense of art and being good at InDesign,
she also draws a logo for CGU_Taiwan and DM for jamboree.
Ku,Yu-Chang
(Arcanine)
He really likes Arcanine so let him be the cool Arcanine once.
He leads the experiment group, learns and modifies
the protocols, collects the laboratory supplies, and cultures
lots of leishmania. He also has a special headlamp with
mystical power that can photo-inactive the leishmania.
Our product safety is all contributed to this step.
Yen,Da-Li
(Slowbro)
He makes others think of Slowbro due to the atmosphere
around him. He is also a professional leishmania keeper.
He handles a crucial step to transfect target vector into
leishmania by electroporation and then does drug selection.
Trying every conditions and discussing over time and
time with teachers, he finally successes
and becomes a great troubleshooting leishmania trainer.
Chang, Chia-Wei
(Abra)
Abra employs psychic ability even while sleeping.
Chia-Wei seems to also have psychic power to keep on carrying
out experiments, however, non-sleeping until the sun rises up.
She leads our biobrick design, construct, and debug.
She is also very hard-working and high concentration on
doing anything which helps our experiment start more smoothly.
Hsu, Justine
(Snorlax)
She wants to let Snorlax to be her buddy and

experiment operator, and an earnest supporter for our team.
Liao, Tzu-Chieh
(Electabuzz)
Tzu-Chieh is just as cute as Dratini,

Liu, Tzu-Li
(Dratini)
He is Electabuzz just because majoring in
electronic engineering. And it is a big work for him to
understand and catch up with biology stuff.
But he is a good asker and helps for modeling.
He provides lots of resources including 3D printer and
camera to help us print our product and taking group photos.
Lin, Bin-Tse
(Blastoise)
The one that evolves quickly from Squirtle during

freshman orientation. She also participates in interlab project.











Sponsors

iGEM is a highly-cost competition, so that we have no choice but to go around canvassing and collect requisite capital for iGEM. There are four parts in our total budgetary, including registration fees, experimental costs, transportation & living expenses, and others. Our project will require extensive DNA work and large-scale antibody test. The required reagents count significant cost to our budget; the actual cost varies depending on the results and progress. Any remaining funds will go towards being used in personal registration fees to MIT (USA) Jamboree where we present our project, and living expenses later.

At first, we think how we could get subsidized by others? Then we wrote request letters for small donations and emailed them to the faculty of Chang Gung University and thousands and hundreds of biotech-associated or –unassociated companies. In the letter, we described, “your small donation will do help us achieve our goals and support the CGU iGEM team in the years to come. The desire to win glory for Taiwan impels our team to work more diligently. Finally, we are going to contribute to the world by our ultimate outcome.”

Additionally, we participated in the plenitude of seminars, lectures, and exhibitions, like Joint Annual Conference of Biomedical Science in Taiwan and numerous academic seminars held in the CGU, so that we could have a direct contact with managers or agents of the companies to ask them for assistance.
