Co-instructors

    Both instructors of Team:Shenzhen, have also been acting as instructors or advisors of the two team from SUSTC.

    As both teams from SUSTC are software teams, wet-lab experiences can be shared by Team:Shenzhen.

    In the Biosearch project, Kang has given some suggestions on search engine and data structure, and also shows great enthusiasm in program testing and spreading.

    In the Termination Efficiency Calculator project, Yu helped in designing the expression vector and wet-lab works. With some course work, Yu and Kang have shown them the great significance in engineering terminators with different efficiency in prokaryotes.

Laboratory Sharing

    As SUSTC is a very young university in Shenzhen, they have not built their own biology laboratory. As BGI Research Institute has also some terminator related projects, Team:Shenzhen has been sharing our laboratory with SUSTC-B, for the wet-lab part in the TEC project.

Workshops

    Two teams of SUSTC have visited BGI in July and held a workshop among the tree teams. We also afterwards moved on to HKUST and had a four-team workshop there. As the three teams in Shenzhen are all of their first time in iGEM, helpful information and suggestions have been exchanged face to face.

Lectures to High Schools

    In August, several youngsters from Shenzhen Foreign Languages School joined YAO project and worked together with our undergraduates for two weeks. As they have great talent and willing to initial their own projects, they have built iGEM association in Shenzhen Foreign Languages School, which is the first student association in Shenzhen high schools. They will get guidance from BGI College iGEM Team or the Unit of Synthetic Biology of BGI Research Institute per two weeks.
