Public Engagement
During the club recruiting in our school, we advertised our project to the students who are interest in biology and nature science. We told them about the knowledge of synthetic biology, like what is synthetic biology, what is the significance of synthetic biology and the future of it. We hope that students can not only learn more about the blood donation, but also learn more about the meaning of this subject. Another aim was to discover the potential members who want to take part in iGEM next year.

We also hold a small lecture in our school. We first introduced our project to them, why we chose our topic, how we did the experiments and what we have found in the end. But the most important part of the educational lecture was to introduce the advantages of the blood donation to our students and teachers. Because we need to set up the concept of blood donation in the early age. We made some flyers about the knowledge of blood donation and gave them out. The lecture was successful, and students also told to their parents about the knowledges.

We hope that through our project and the education, more and more people will change their opinions about the blood donation. Maybe just one more person join in this, we can save one more life……
