    Since the research strategy of systems biology is well fit to analyze the biological complex systems. I am applying this strategy on the mechanism of the complex diseases such as cancer and diabetes. My ongoing project is to identify biomarkers in order to detect the progress stages of the diabetes. As a metabolic disease, diabetes-related proteins tend to enter the circulation system, thus the biomarker discovery in plasma has the potential to play an important role in the early detection and treatment of diabetes. We have developed systematic approaches based on proteomics and bioinformatics to analyze human normal and diabetic serum. In addition, I have planed to analyze the genetic and environmental factors and their interactions during the progressing of the type 2 diabetes with systems-biology approaches.

    Hello everyone, I'm Wuyang Chen, a junior student major in Life Science. I live in a pleasant city on a bank of Yangtze River. My parents plant many beautiful plants and feed a dog, two turtles and 20 or so pigeons in our house, which cultivated my passion for biology. I'm so thankful for my parents!

    I think it is a brilliant idea to combine computer modeling and biology, which can help people predict a behavior of a system and test it by advanced biotechnology. So I join iGEM, to take part into the research of synthetic biology in person and realize some interesting projects. The past year in iGEM would be a meaningful and fantastic journey to me!

    When taking a rest, I would like to tennis and listen to music. I love the music from the Secret Garden and the talent musician Jeo Hisaishi best!

  • Qian Li

    Qian Li




    Qian Li is a senior majoring in analytical chemistry in school of chemistry and materials science in USTC. She is doing research at Liang's lab on a project related to enzyme-instructed intracellular self-assembly of nanoparticles for multi-drug resistance (MDR). In that project, she has developed her interest in biology, especially in sythetic biology, which is also the impetus for her to become an igemer in 2012. She would like to learn more about this area and introduce the synthetic biology to her lab to improve the effeciency and the compatible-biology of the cancer drug effeciency. At the same time, she can apply skills what she has learned in chemistry to the igem team.

    Cai Li is a rising senior at USTC,majoring in analytical chemistry.Her interests in synthetic biology give her the passion participating in iGEM.Besides iGEM,her research interests span dendrimers,the host-guest interactions and NMR techniques.

  • Song Wang

    Song Wang




    I am a rising senior majoring in Chemistry in University of Science and Technology. I decided to participate in iGEM not only to do some interesting research, but also to learn how to turn a simple idea to a successful work. In the 2012 USTC iGEM team, I learned much knowledge about synthetic biology and had a good time with the team members. Previous to iGEM, I worked in the lab of analytical chemistry at USTC, trying to use a fluorescent material as novel molecular probe to find the cancer cell using imaging technology. In my leisure time, I like to play table-tennis and badminton.

  • Jiemin Zhao

    Jiemin Zhao




    I am a senior majoring in Chemistry in University of Science and Technology. I took part in 2012 USTC iGEM team because I was interesting in biology especially synthetic biology. I felt excited when I did the experiment and studied the new knowledge in this summer. I also did financial work in our team. I like reading books in my leisure time, sometimes also watch the movies.

  • JinXin Wang

    JinXin Wang




     Hi, everyone. I am Jinxin Wang, a sophomore student majoring in biology at University of Science and Technology of China. With tremendous interest in iGEM, I am delighted to share two-month time with my teammates. At the period of my time in laboratory, I have learnt a lot of valuable spirits, such as teamwork, patience and insistence.
     As a sophomore student, I am not familiar with scientific research. In retrospect, I find myself standing on a solid basis in both theory and experience. But things turn better after I join iGEM. It is not only a interesting competition, but also a useful method making me realize the secret of synthetic biology. I like it very much~

    Hi! I am a junior student majoring in Biology at University of science and technology of China. Being a member of the USTC iGEM2012, I have learned a lot during this summer. It attracts me into the world of synthetic biology. Besides, I pick up some html&css language and construct my first website--our wiki! That is a process where I make every efforts to rise to the challenge. What's more, iGEM has taught me how to cooperate with others. Without those discussions with my partners, I can hardly achieve what I have done. I feel so lucky here and would like to say that IGEM is the coolest game I have ever played!

    I am a junior student from the school of the gifted young, USTC . Though my major is organic chemistry and my current research is about nano materials , I have a great passion for biology ever since junior high. I love challenging myself, so I chose to take part in this year's iGEM and cooperated with my teammates to work on the project as well as the wiki. I had a great time working with my lovely teammates and doing the experiments . With the help of this experience, I have a better understanding of synthetic biology. My email: unheilig@mail.ustc.edu.cn.

    I'm Zheng Xuexuan, a student from Life Science School, USTC. I take part in IGEM2012 because I want to challenge myself, that is to say , I want to confirm how much knowledge I've gotten and how many problems in life science can I solve. Through this half year, I've gained lots of improvement both in my experiment skills and in my horizon of life science. Thanks, my teammates. And thanks, IGEM2012.

    Hi ~
    I'm Chen Xi,who is a senior student from the department of chemical physics of USTC now. In this summer, I spent my most time in the synthetic biology laboratory where I had never known about. During this vacation, I had a wonderful time with my teamates and I felt lucky to have this experience during my university.

    Hi, I am a senior guy majoring physics in USTC. I am especially interested in condensed matter theory. However, iGEM provided me with an opportunity to put what I learned into practice.
    Biology is one of my interests since my childhood. With the hope to see how much the frionter biology research differs from my childhood dream, I joined iGEM team last year. During this year, I equiped myself with enough biology knowledge, especially in synthetic biology, which in my mind is quite an interesting and promising area that scientists disigned, modeled and set up biological functional parts to solve real problems and to perform basic scientific research as well.
    I treasure a lot the time I worked with my teammeats together during the summer. In our project, I designed a computation model based on my knowledge learned in computational physics class. What is more, with the help from biology department students, I set up ODEs to describe our system. It is exciting to see how effective these two 'weapons' works!
    Beyond academic activity, I am an easygoing boy interested in painting, chess, movie, travelling bicycling, plants and animals and so on. I am glad to be your friends!

    Hello everybody , I am Zhang Sitao , a freshman of USTC .
    My major is life science . I am an assistant of all the other guys in my team , in other word , my duty is to keep every fellows feel more comfortable and convenient while they are doing their work . Certainly I have many other work to do , helping figure out the main direction of our theme , combining some bioparts together and doing some survey during the human practice part . For I have a strong ability of communicating and cooperating , everybody loves me , in my view . Personally speaking , igem just establishes a board for many biology nuts from every parts of the world , it is meaningful for the mixing of science and interest . Though I am not the main force of our team ,but things will get changed the next time of this game , I will come back for the honour of my university !
