Sharing and collaboration are core values of iGEM, and our team also devote ourselves to expanding the influence of synthetic biology with others. In this part, we have helped students in Guangdong Experimental High School to build a team (GDGDSYZX-United ) to participate in the iGEM competition.

 

 

1. We helped them distribute tasks to everyone according to their own intention and talents, such as experimenters, art designers, editors and speakers.

 

2. We introduced the purpose and overview of iGEM competition and explained the rules to them in detail. Also, we showed some excellent wikis to let them know how to start their work and how to achieve their goal.

 

3. We showed them how to use different equipments to do experiments. Since their chassis organism is plant cell, which is similar to us, so we could give some guidance to their project. We also provided some plasmids to them. We led them to design their own logo and team uniform. And we also sent two teammates (Wang Rong and Lin Yunping) to Guangdong Experimental High School for several months to be their art and modeling advisor to help them build web page and design poster. We held a meeting to communicate about project progress and team construction, sharing experience and learning from each other.

 

Since the iGEMers from team GDSYZX-United are all high school students, most of them know little about mathematical tools which can be uesd to help optimize biological experiments. So we talked to them and tried to help them comprehen the usage of some mathematical tools in biological experiments by giving them some examples of mathematical modeling in iGEM projects. What's more, we gave them some advice when they were analyzing the experiment results.
