- Brainstorming and learning about relevant materials.
- we started to discuss our ideas and invited teachers to give some advice about our projects.
- Presentation within the team to share what we learn about synthetic biology.
-
Week2(4.23-4.29)
- Finally, we choose the idea of creating a new detection method for HCV in donated blood.
- A lab was provided by Shandong University in summer vacation
- After many discussions, everyone's division of labor is becoming clearer.
- We began to use our spare time to study experimental techniques.
- we started to brainstorm in order to create our team logo.
-
