In order to carry out my job as a worker of the drylab, I have spent days mastering the registry and wrote a guideline to help out my teammates. For the reason that I was a member of our team’s Human Practices group; including me and my teammate Gamze, together we have carried out the activities, events and attended meetings. We were also on the hunt for sponsors and talked to a lot of stakeholders and by doing research I have found a sponsor for designing our prototype. I, furthermore, supported my team by filling out the “Design” and “Parts” page with great care.

As the team leader, I was involved in almost everything from wet lab to our paintings/drawings. One of my jobs was to write down the meeting notes and lab notebook daily in order to keep track of everything. I was also the one to check the schedule and current situation regularly to make sure that everything would be done on time. Apart from my leader duties, I was involved in wet lab and dry lab, so I did learn both how to use the registry and how to apply the protocols in lab environment. Together with Beliz, I searched sponsors, mailed and phoned them when necessary. In addition, I had a role in planning, organizing and carrying out human practices. To take the credit, I was the one who drew and detailed thousands of mascots, logos, and project ideas until they were finally decided and transferred into digital environment.

I was mainly focused on and had great contributions to our InterLab process as I was in charge of all of the protocols, reviewing the results and forming the excel sheet that was going to be sent to HQ. During our project for modelling, I visualized the results we got from the lab in order to compare them with the expected results. I used MATLAB and Blender to further analyze and demonstrate our work. By this way, I learned how to use MATLAB for calculating and portraying the results. Furthermore, I helped writing the use of biology part of our parts. And, like all members I tried to construct some experiments on our teacher sight.

My duties were, like everybody else’s were, diverse. As the project progressed, I figured my strengths and weaknesses out which helped me figure out how to unleash my full potential to help this team. I’m proud about the prototype the most; of which I believe I was able to be useful the most useful. While doing Human Practice work, I appeared on SEBIT, the interview, presentation and workshop; on the DNA day doing DNA extraction. Also, I’ve helped with drylab and interlab.

As a team, we mainly worked together in all fields so that everyone can keep track of everything that was going on at that time but I can say that I played a great role in writing our project description, helped our project form to what it is now, by doing research and had a responsibility in most of our HP works such as SEBİT workshop, DNA Day Event and DNA extraction. I also helped in the Interlab process by reviewing the protocols and doing serial dilution. Furthermore, I was involved in planning our experiments regarding our project and protocols while executing some.
