− | <h3>Science and Technology Week</h3> | + | <video autoplay="" muted="muted" preload="preload" loop="loop" width="70%" controls="controls" |
− | <p>Science and Technology Week is is a large-scale, centralized science popularization campaign organized by
| + | style="border-radius: 8px;box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px 3px #ccc;" |
− | the China University of Science and Technology. This year, Science and Technology Week attracted over
| + | src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2018/b/bb/T--USTC-Software--Demonstration.mp4"> |
− | ten thousand citizens to USTC, varying from innocent pupils, high school students and college students
| + | </video> |
− | in biology-related majors to the public from all walks who may have limited knowledge of Synthetic
| + | |
− | Biology. Our team cooperated with Team USTC and offered visitors a feast of biological knowledge and a
| + | |
− | chance to cultivate interest in biology.</p>
| + | |
− | <p>We introduced elementary knowledge of genetics to citizens by poster presentation and our explanation,
| + | |
− | then showed them some basic experiment operation, like liquid relief, centrifugation and etc. We educate
| + | |
− | and inspire visitors' interest by allowing them to observe biochemical-related sections under a
| + | |
− | laboratory microscope. In addition, we distributed questionnaires to visitors to get their feedback on
| + | |
− | synthetic biology to improve our design of our software.</p>

− | <h3>Student Open Source Conference</h3>
| + | |
− | <p>The Student Open Source Annual Meeting is the first open source technology summit in China that is
| + | |
− | organized by student organizations. The main theme of the conference is understanding, participating in,
| + | |
− | and contributing to open source. Our team signed up for this annual meeting.At the meeting, our team
| + | |
− | leader and a team member worked together to complete the report on our iGEM project. We introduced the
| + | |
− | iGEM competition and the synthetic biology to the audience.At the same time, we also introduced the
| + | |
− | positive significance of our project to synthetic biology to the audience. We received useful feedbacks
| + | |
− | and technology-improvement suggestions from audience.</p>

− | <h3>Asia-Pacific Conference in Taiwan</h3>
| + | |
− | <p>We attended International Genetically Engineered Machine Conference held by National Chung Hsing
| + | |
− | University from July 30th to August 3rd 2018. Over 20 iGEM teams attended the conference and 5 members
| + | |
− | of our team was sent to Taiwan.</p>
| + | |
− | <p>During the conference, the iGEMers communicated, changed ideas and learned from one another. The
| + | |
− | conference is not only a simple warm-up for the upcoming world championship in Boston, but an Asian
| + | |
− | regional platform for teams from different countries to exchange ideas and explore synthetic biology as
| + | |
− | well. All the teams made a project presentation and introduced their projects. In this way, we received
| + | |
− | useful feedbacks and technology-improvement suggestions from students and professors of other teams.</p>

| + | |
− | <h3>Software Promotion</h3> | + | |
− | <p>Since our software is an open and fantastic platform with practical functions for synthetic biologists,
| + | |
− | it’s of great importance to promote our software to synthetic biology related users.</p>
| + | |
− | <p>To find out whether our improvement above is useful or not, We packed up an alpha version distributing to
| + | |
− | schoolmates whose major is biology in September. And in October we packed a more advanced version to
| + | |
− | some igem teams worldwide. We introduced them to Bioeditor and its basic usage. After they had used this
| + | |
− | software for a while, most of them reported that it was quite useful. And then we have packed our
| + | |
− | completed version to the real synthetic biologists by now.</p>
