Collaborations
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 been help Guangdong Experimental High School'students to build a team (GDGDSYZX-United ) to participate in the iGEM competition.
1.We helped them distribute of tasks to everyone according to their intention and talent, such as experimenters, art designers, editors and speakers.
2.We introduced the purpose and overview of iGEM competition and explained the rules to the them in detail. Also, we showed some excellent wiki to let them know how to start their work and how to achieve their goal.
3.We showed them how to use equipment to do experiment. Since their chassis is plant cell, which is similar with us, so we could give some guidance to their project. We also provide some plasmids to them. We lead them to design their own logo and team uniform. And we also send 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 hold a meeting to communicate about project progress and team construction, sharing experience and learn from each other.
Since the iGEMers from team GDSYZX-United are all high school students, most of them know little about mathematical tool which can help optimize biological experiments. So we talk to them and try to make them to comprehen the usage of mathematical tool in biological experiments by giving some examples of mathematical modeling in iGEM projects. What’s more, we give them some advice when they are analyzing the experiment results.
