PKU-UCSF Workshop
On July 25th to 29th, the Center of Quantitative Biology in Peking University and Center for System & Synthetic Biology in UCSF co-organized a challenge workshop among undergraduate, graduate, and post-doc students. Participants were divided into several teams discussing synthetic biological issues such as ontogenetic, micro-fluids, cell stress management, and cell size control. “The teams went through successive rounds of brainstorming, research and discussion, and then presented their ideas daily to the other teams for further critique and redirection.” (“Center Organizes Team Challenge Workshop with Peking University”)

On July 25th, Peking 2012 iGEM team participated in the PKU-UCSF Workshop. We put up the poster and introduced our projects to other participants and professors. We also discussed with other participants on their projects. We got a chance to discuss with Director Connie M. Lee from UCSF. The conversation benefited us a lot.
