<p>Our project, 3 Miao BioCommunity, is different from all the iGem software projects in the past, for we have an ambition to create a community for the whole synthetic biology. This community is based on our original idea, the Mind Road. Mind Road is a net structural mind map that can help users think and share ideas, which can function as a platform for all synthetic biology ideas exchange. </p>

<h3>Summary</h3>

<p>Based on the Mind Road, our community now has a theme—— share ideas. With this theme, we intend to build our 3Miao BioCommunity. In this community, we offer LGD and TTEC as useful tool for users to process the ideas. LGD is a genetic circuit designer which can present the logical relationship of related parts. What is more, users can also post their own ideas and comment on others’ work, like Facebook and Twitter.</p>

<p>Before we got our idea, we had reviewed all the software projects of the last three years and classified them into 6 categories (fig1). As showing in the picture, designing CAD takes up the majority of these projects. As expected, most of them share the similar ideas. After a certain time of thinking, we found that it is really reasonable that iGem software projects can hardly be quite innovative, for the lack of professional knowledge and the limitation of the usage of software during synthetic biology study. But also, if we continue to follow these ideas, our project is far away from being creative or original. Then it occurred to us, why don’t we write a program to help at least the wet lab members to get new ideas? Thus, we decided to make a difference, to create our own Mind Road—— a net structural mind map—— to assist either iGEMers or professional synthetic biology researchers to come up with and share their ideas.</p>

Meeting

Summary

When we were doing our project of the community of synthetic biology, we were always thinking that public should know more about it and they need to join our community. Synthetic biology is powerful, but to most of the citizen, they haven’t heard about it. After comparing of different ages, we thought high school students and college freshmen are the most suitable groups for popularization of synthetic biology. So in the presentation parts, we focused on guiding them. We went to the best two high schools in Shenzhen, and we had a public course on synthetic biology to our freshmen.

High Schools

Shenzhen Experimental High School

In Sep 25th, we went to Shenzhen Experimental High School to give the students there a public course, and we answered their interesting questions.

The public course included the history of synthetic biology, and we described it with a very easy way for understanding. Then we talked about the basic idea and knowledge of synthetic biology, and helped them to understand how we can build a new circuit. After that, we focused on the safety and humanity of this new subject, which is the most important part to let citizens accept this mysterious thing. The last part was about iGEM, and this was the most interesting part; those students were very interested about it.

They provided us a lot of questions, such as “Why do we need to use E.Coli to be the basic part of synthetic biology”, and “Were the project commercialized?” We answered these questions in detail.

And they showed a lot of interests in iGEM high school competition. We gave them our brochures of synthetic biology and iGEM, so the students who didn’t have the chance to take part in the public course could know and learn things about synthetic biology and iGEM.

Shenzhen High School

In Sep 26th, we went to Shenzhen High School to give the students there a public course, and what’s more, we had a communication with their teachers and we finally had a common view of cooperation in synthetic biology in the future.

The public course was the same as we had in Shenzhen Experimental High School. It included the history of synthetic biology, and we described it with a very easy way for understanding. Then we talked about the basic idea and knowledge of synthetic biology, and helped them to understand how we can build a new circuit. After that, we focused on the safety and humanity of this new subject, which is the most important part to let citizens accept this mysterious thing. The last part was about iGEM, and this was the most interesting part; those students were very interested about it.

We had a very cheerful conversation with their teachers that they tried our software and we decided to have a cooperation of popularizing synthetic biology in their school in the future. That’s a big step of popularizing synthetic biology in Shenzhen, because they are the best high school here, and they can lead other schools to know and learn synthetic biology.

We applied a big conference room for the students who wanted to have a deeply discussion. All the students were talented and interested in synthetic biology, iGEM and our project.

College Freshmen

In Sep 11th, we had a public course in our school. The public course was the same as we had in Shenzhen Experimental High School. It included the history of synthetic biology, and we described it with a very easy way for understanding. Then we talked about the basic idea and knowledge of synthetic biology, and helped them to understand how we can build a new circuit. After that, we focused on the safety and humanity of this new subject, which is the most important part to let freshmen accept this mysterious thing. The last part was about iGEM, and this was the most interesting part; those students were very interested about it.

What’s more, we gave these students who were very interested in this field a course about the details of experiment and knowledge, and we invited our professors to give them more guiding. Of course, we let some freshmen join our job, in order to let them know the working environment of iGEM, and to let the tradition of iGEM can continue in the next year.

This freshman asked some interesting questions about synthetic biology, and our team member answered his questions with patience.

This guy is our team member. He is showing what we have done and what we want to do to freshmen.
