Practical Analysis

Human Practice

• Questionnaire
• Factory Visit
• Practical Analysis
• Team Communication

In September 7th, the first Model iGEM was hosted by Peking iGEM. Focusing on inter-team communication, preparing for iGEM jamboree but not for prize, Model iGEM is a competition without competitiveness.

We believe, that interactions bring great insights. And we all think it’s a really unique, fantastic experience. We hope other iGEM teams are inspired to do the same, and Model iGEM will be continued to host in the years after.

For several team members, it will be their first time to attend iGEM Asian Jamboree in this October. Model iGEM could be seen as a “drill” in advance, from presentation to poster. We want the competition to work like the Asian Jamboree as much as possible, in the meanwhile, promote the communication between teams.
However, it’s inappropriate and unnecessary to award any prize, for few teams have adequate time to get ready in early September.

Snap shot
Concentrating on ideas from different teams, we really enjoyed our time. Strengths and weaknesses, we sometimes saw in ourselves and from others. Wonderful questions from audiences and judges pointed out how to improve and present our projects in the future, so does advice.

Having experienced a model competition, we owned a chance to view our project as an outsider. And we believe that, we will be much more at ease in the presentation of Asian jamboree.

As for lunchtime, we enjoyed the tasty pizza and our talk. We shared funny stories in this summer and exchanged ideas about different projects as well as teams. Walking around, we viewed posters from each team, and discussed curves, data, even details about materials and test conditions.

Eventually, closing remarks approached. Tired but joyful, we will never forget this rewarding model jamboree.
