   <p>Having a deep cooperation with Southwest Union(iGEM meet-up in southwest China) last year, we viewed the meet-up an important role in our early-stage, thus, as soon as our project get mostly shaped, we discussed with SCU-WestChina about holding the Southwest Union meet-up of 2017. Together with the SCU-WestChina, SCU-China , UESTC-China and SICAU-China, we have an overall assessment of the safety and feasibility of our project and the latest trend of iGEM competition including the newly added judging terms, etc. What matters most was that all teams exchanged information and built a deeper relationship. </p>

   <p>Synthetic biology is a fast moving interdisciplinary branch of biology and engineering. To educate the next generation of synthetic biology scientists, the International Genetically Engineered Machine competition was established. In the past ten years, many Chinese teams have participated in this event, but no thorough review and analysis have been carried out. We collect a lot of the Chinese teams’ data and information from the iGEM website and analyzed the number of teams, the performance of these teams. From these analysis, we envision the iGEM competition will continue to promote the innovative education in China, especially for those undeveloped areas. </p>

  <h3 style="color: #00a98f;">The number of Chinese teams in iGEM competition</h3>
 +
  <p>In Figure 1, we catalogued the number of teams from the globe or from China. From the iGEM website data, we take the teams at the “Accepted” status as the officially teams participated in the iGEM competition. In 2007, there were 5 teams from China. They were Tianjing, USTC, Peking, Tsinghua and Taipei. But in 2016, there were 73 teams from China, which surpassed all the other countries in the iGEM competition. We also calculate the ratio of Chinese teams among all the teams, and we found that the ratio increased from 9.6 % (2007) to 26.8% (2016). It took 6 years to increase from 9.6% (2013) to 22% (2013), while it took 3 years to increase from 22% (2013) to 26.8% (2016). </p>

 +
  <p>We also sum up all the times that all the teams participated in iGEM competition, and we found that in the past 10 years, there were 303 teams from university or institution participated in the iGEM competition all together. We also place their numbers in different provinces, direct-controlled municipalities and special administrative districts. We found that most of the teams were still from the developed areas, indicating that the these teams participated early in the iGEM competition, and some universities had 2 or 3 teams in some years, further make the distribution of teams biased in the developed areas.</p>

  <h3 style="color: #00a98f;">The performance of Chinese teams in the medals </h3>
 +
  <p>The gold, silver or bronze medals are awarded based on the quality of the project. All teams can achieve any one of these medals. After analyzed the increased number of Chinese teams in iGEM, we want to know the performance of Chinese teams in iGEM. We retrieved the medals data from the iGEM website. We found that the performance of Chinese teams is extraordinary, especially in the undergraduates group. </p>
 +
  <p>The total medals, especially the gold medals increased from 2007 to 2016 among Chinese iGEM teams. In 2007, the 5 teams got 5 gold medals, but in 2008, no gold metals. In 2016, there were 37 gold medals among Chinese teams, which indicated that the Chinese teams performed very well in the iGEM. To further get a glimpse into the performance of Chinese teams in iGEM, we analyzed the ratio of gold, silver, bronze and no medals among Chinese teams. We found that the gold medal ratio of Chinese teams had 3 troughs. They were 2008, 2011 and 2014. From 2011 to 2013, there were regional jamborees. From 2014 to 2016, all the teams participated in the Giant jamboree, but the high school teams were not awarded medals until 2014. We found that from 2011 to 2013, the gold ratio increased from 39.1% to 65.9%. From 2014 to 2016, the gold ratio increased from 40% to 50.7%. The analysis told us that Chinese iGEM teams can quickly adapt to the changed situation and judging criteria to get better results.</p>

   <p>As the competition approaches, the Central China iGEM Consortium (CCiC) conference was hosted by Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University (FAFU-China), in order to simulate the iGEM Giant jamboree and enhance further communication among different teams. This was a great opportunity to present our work and learn from the other 48 teams. It was nice to see that we did a good job in presentation and the audience was attracted by our project. The most important thing to us was that we harvested much useful advice from the judges, mentors and students. We made the best of the Panel Session and poster exhibition to establish collaborations with other teams. Interestingly, we were lucky to have deep conversations with Igem headquarter King L. CHOW and former iGEMer Zhang Haoqian, who encouraged us to go deeper in research and promote iGEM and synthetic biology research in our university. From the CCiC, we were aware of our current disadvantages in quantitative measurement and the overall logic, which laid a foundation for the later adjustments and improvements. More importantly, we made great acquaintance with many students and establish deep collaborations with teams with same interest, including ShanghaiTech University and Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University.</p>

 +
  <p>This year, we aimed to build a quorum sensing tool kit based on the Agr system from the Gram-positive bacteria-- <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>, while XJTLU-China happens to working on a quite similar project. However, we had difficulties synthesizing the genes agrC and agrA in plasmids, and therefore, the experiments were not able to conduct. Fortunately, XJTLU-China had the similar construction and provided us with their group I <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>’ s agrC and agrA genes. </p>

  <p>Scientific research is not always a dull work. It can also be an interesting experience which everyone can share and enjoy. With the intention of spreading the fun and attractiveness of the synthetic biology, we designed some letter cards. In this way, synthetic biology drew more attention by showing its fun, following the idea of combining science and art.</p>
 
  <p>In the 2016 sports meeting in our university, our team orgnized a vivid propogation for synthetic biology to students, teachers and many doctors in our subordinary hospitals. We sent letter cards to them and encouraged them to synthesize their own works of art. Delightful, many people were willing to join us to make up a sentence with the letter cards. To our suprise, there were two little girls showing great interest in it. With their imagination, they gave us much courage and inspiration.</p>
 
  <p>We are inspired by the term `Bio-brick'. Assuming that every letter card is a 'Bio-brick', we synthesize the letter cards into a sentence like constructing a plasmid from several 'Bio-bricks'. With limited letters, we can create unlimited sentences just like with limited 'Bio-bricks', we can create unlimited plasmids and realize unlimited kinds of functions. Construcing itself is funny and thought-provoking. And in the process of constructing, we presented our work and popularized iGEM. Hopefully, these letter cards will be the carrier of the idea of synthetic biology and our wish to realize all the possibilities with 'Bio-bricks'.</p>

  <p>Nowadays many Chinese don't know what is transgenic technology, and some rumors from the Internet convince them that transgenosis is extremely harmful to human. As many Chinese don't have an objective understanding about transgenic technology, we think it's our duty to publicize correct concepts about it. It's also a good chance to popularize the definition of synthetic biology and gather resource from West China. Coming up with this idea when communicating with SCU_WestChina that hold a scientific exhibition, iGEM team SCU_WestChina contacted other teams involving SCU-China and UESTC_China to make an exhibition together about transgenic technology. We aimed to make the visitors understand what is transgenic technology and get some advice about our project from the visitors.</p>
+
   
   <p>Eventually, SCU_WestChina got in touch with Chengdu Library successfully. Chengdu Library is a leading city center library in west China, receiving 1,010 million readers in 2016. After several conferences with other three teams, we chose "genetic modification and health" as the theme of the exhibition. And then we discussed the content of this exhibition and designed the posters together. The exhibition was composed of four parts: disease treatment, biopharmaceuticals, disease detection, and environmental management. Each team was responsible for one part. And teams from Sichuan University and team from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China completed forewords and conclusion respectively. We printed the posters a week ahead of the exhibition, and laid them out in Chengdu Library one day in advance. The exhibition lasted for 7 days. On the first day, the four teams went to the library early to distribute leaflets and small gifts to the public in the rest areas and outside the library. We introduced our theme to those readers, answered their questions, had discussions with them on genetic modification, and collected suggestions from them. The audience was very absorbed, and many said they had a more objective and comprehensive understanding about genetic modification, which makes us feel very rewarding. The four teams worked on the maintenance, publicity and explanation of the exhibition for the following days, and removed the posters and cleared the exhibition hall together on the last day.</p>
