<strong>How: </strong> We interviewed Dr. Wu-Chun Tu, a professor working in the Department of Entomology, National Chung Hsing University, who has published more than dozens of articles in SCI journals. He is also serving in National Mosquito-Borne Diseases Control Research Center, National Health Research Institutes for the government to control mosquito-borne diseases. In our conversation, he gave us quite a lot suggestions and indicated the direction of our project in the future. </br>

In our conversation, the professor told us that the greatest disadvantage of our mosquito-based blood testing system to detect pathogens is the lack of specificity. Also, he indicated that applying the system to human body could still be too far away. Even providing it to African people, it is impossible for the authority to pass the related legislations, which involves in many moral issues and a sense of discrimination. After all, why are they but not others tested? The professor suggested we could design a device which can be applied to everyone instead of special communities. He suggested that it’s better for us to apply our design to livestock. By decreasing the animal infectious diseases, it could reduce the zoonotic pathogen to people.

We had a fierce fight on balancing the pros and cons of the applications of the synthetic engineering in human’s life. We gave many convincing examples, stated a lot of facts, used different viewpoints to discuss the issue. We talked about examples from eugenics to superweeds, from International Monsanto Tribunal to Taiwan Anti-GMO Organizations. And yet, we’re equipped with a sharpening vision and depth perception to strengthen our proposition.

Due to so many limitations, it is currently impossible for us to release GE mosquitoes to the environment. In the conversation, we found that we don’t fully understand mosquitoes as our experimental host. We still need to learn more about the experiment using mosquitoes and the application of GE organisms in a safety and moral way.

It’s a great experience for us to organize my team timely and effectively, and a rare opportunity to stand in opposition to an iGEM team, CCU-Taiwan. We really did much work to research in the topic of GMO and have learned a lot from this competition. Special thanks to the volunteers, CCU participants and Debate Club from MDHS, for the help to organize this debate competition. Without them, we can’t ever have such a fantastic and meaningful competition in the life of high school students.

Description

Pros and Cons of Biotech

Participants: Mingdao High School students vs. iGEMers (Team CCU-Taiwan)
Date: Sep. 4, 2018
Location: Conference Hall at Mingdao High School
Dialogue: ynthetic biology and ethical issues




Why: To discuss the impact of synthetic biology and ethical issues in genetic engineering


How: A debate competition held in Mingdao High School (MDHS) in cooperation with iGEM Team CCU-Taiwan

What:

Issue: Pros and Cons of Biotech
Rules followed SINGAPORE SECONDARY SCHOOLS DEBATING CHAMPIONSHIPS
Schedule:

We had a fierce fight on balancing the pros and cons of the applications of the synthetic engineering in human’s life. We gave many convincing examples, stated a lot of facts, used different viewpoints to discuss the issue. We talked about examples from eugenics to superweeds, from International Monsanto Tribunal to Taiwan Anti-GMO Organizations. And yet, we’re equipped with a sharpening vision and depth perception to strengthen our proposition.

Reflection:

It’s a great experience for us to organize my team timely and effectively, and a rare opportunity to stand in opposition to an iGEM team, CCU-Taiwan. We really did much work to research in the topic of GMO and have learned a lot from this competition. Special thanks to the volunteers, CCU participants and Debate Club from MDHS, for the help to organize this debate competition. Without them, we can’t ever have such a fantastic and meaningful competition in the life of high school students.
