<p id="yo">This year our team had an opportunity to interact with other universities: South University Science and Technology of China (SUSTC), and Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). On August 17th, we met SUSTC at our university. We hosted a semi-formal event where each team had a chance to present and share its project. We also had a Q&A session after each project so that we could discuss the projects in more detail. After the presentations, we ate lunch together and tour around our campus.We also participated in a similar event in CUHK on 24th August. This time, three teams, HKUST, CUHK, and SUSTC iGEM team participated. </p>

<p id="yo">Our team plan to have two presentations for HKUST students: one for freshmen school of science students and one for school of engineering students. We have already contacted each of the school’s office and confirmed the dates of the presentations. Presentation for school of science students will be conducted on 27th of September and presentation for school of engineering students will take place on 9th of October. During the presentations, we will briefly introduce synthetic biology and the iGEM competition, briefly describe our project, and encourage students to join the next iGEM team. We hope that we will have more variety of student from different majors participating in the iGEM competition next year.</p>

Innovation Carnival (InnoCarnival) is a flagship event of the InnoTech Month organized by the Innovation and Technology Commission (ITC). It aims to provide members of the public to gain hands-on experience of the convenience and fun brought by innovation and technology to daily life. Our talk will be on introducing synthetic biology to the public and share our experience working in the wet lab experiments and human practice activities done to promote synthetic biology to the general and medical community. We believe this will be a great opportunity to educate and promote synthetic biology to Hong Kong community.</p><br>

Mitochondrial Leader Sequence

For one of our human practice projects, our team investigated the current development of synthetic biology in some of the Asian countries. While doing research, we found out that synthetic biology is really a new field in science and that is not well-known in Asia. In fact, when some of our members tried to research information about synthetic biology in Cantonese, we could not find any webpages dedicated to share information about synthetic biology for the public in Hong Kong. To address this observation, we have decided to use an easily accessible platform called Google Blogger. This blog will be used as mean to introduce synthetic biology, share our experience and our project, and report current events related to synthetic biology. It will be written in Chinese and English so that most people in Hong Kong can read it easily and pay more attention to this new field in science. By providing holistic and informational blog posts, we aim at raising the public awareness to synthetic biology.
