Introduction

To make Circuit+ a better software, we collected many feedbacks from users. We sent emails to 2013 iGEM teams to invite them to upload their gene circuits and give us suggestions. And we have received feedbacks from SYSU-China, Peking, SUSTC-Shenzhen-A, OUC, Shenzhen_BGIC_ATCG, etc. And we also collected feedbacks when we were have meetings and jamborees. We really appreciate that they are so kind to share their circuits and offer so much useful suggestions.

Feedback

Summer Workshop

Peking iGEM team

They said, "the surface of the page is great! And the summary on Mindmap is wonderful because iGEM community desperately need a sorting software." Additionally, they also suggested us to add more circuits into the database. And we replied that we will constantly invite iGEM teams throughout the world to use the software and upload their circuits.

Hongkong_HKUST

We also let team Hongkong_HKUST and Hongkong_CUHK use our software while communicating with them during the summer vacation. We thanked Prof. Chow of HKUST for his praise and precious comments.

SUSTC-Shenzhen-A

SUSTC-Shenzhen-A used our old version LGD program to aid themselves to design their gene circuit. Here' a snapshot on their wiki.

Prof. King Chow

The idea of sharing the projects is good. But pay attention to the verification of the submitted projects, it’s a rough work and need some professional volunteers to help you.

Regional jamboree

During the regional jamboree, we showed our software to many people and got some feedbacks. Many teams, such as BGI iGEM teams and Tsinghua iGEM team. They all thought that our software is very useful, especially when coaching new iGEMers. They also showed some idea to cooperate with us in information in database.

Tsinghua-I iGEM team

They show great interest in our mindmap software. and came up with an idea of carry out iGEM training for freshman via mindmap. because the interface is qute fantastic wile the data contains many useful iGEM project and professional circuits from papers. we also decided to have deeper cooperation in the future.
