Time lapse, iGEM was always there. We have cooperated with bioengineering class to arrange a biological model competition which aimed to cultivate the biology interest of student and increase the knowledge of synthetic biology. The theme of this contest was to construct bio-part model, such as double helix, endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria, with diverse fruit and we have attracted 10 teams to join us. IGEM representative team used several kinds of fruit to construct an MAPK pathway, an endogenous signal pathway in S.cerevisiae, showing Figure 2. It is worthy to emphasize that MAPK is the pathway activated by heterologous GPCRs, Odr-10, which we prefer to express in yeast. Finally, Our model was precise and professional so that we got the champion in the game. So this time, we didn’t only advertise the international competition, iGEM, but also make them clear what we were doing and cultivate the biology interest. | Time lapse, iGEM was always there.

Revision as of 14:34, 24 September 2013
Overview
Since March 2012, in order to broadcast the synthetic biology and IGEM, we have arranged or taken part in various committee, activity and interesting competition, such as holding bio-model competition，participating the IGEM workshop of southern district of china, helping freshmen be familiar with our project and experiment or sharing our awkward problems and experience with some colleges.
IGEM Teach-in
IGEM is not popular in SCUT before 2012, which may result from the background of bioscience and bioengineering. In order to appeal more students and join us, so we arranged a teach-in at the end of 2012. Before the Teach-in, we have visited every dormitory of the student of school of bioscience and bioengineering to introduce what is iGEM, invited them to attend Teach-in and provided them an application form in which we could get the information about the their interest and potential of synthetic biology. During teach-in, the Asian gold medalist in the 2012 iGEM have made a presentation about synthetic biology and iGEM and shared what they have done in BGI.

Bio-model competition
Time lapse, iGEM was always there. We have cooperated with bioengineering class to arrange a biological model competition which aimed to cultivate the biology interest of student and increase the knowledge of synthetic biology. The theme of this contest was to construct bio-part model, such as double helix, endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria, with diverse fruit and we have attracted 10 teams to join us. IGEM representative team used several kinds of fruit to construct an MAPK pathway, an endogenous signal pathway in S.cerevisiae, showing Figure 2. It is worthy to emphasize that MAPK is the pathway activated by heterologous GPCRs, Odr-10, which we prefer to express in yeast. Finally, Our model was precise and professional so that we got the champion in the game. So this time, we didn’t only advertise the international competition, iGEM, but also make them clear what we were doing and cultivate the biology interest.
