Our Education and Engagement
On August 3, Nisa, one of the team leaders of the 2017 iGEM NYUAD team, visited an after-school program for elementary school students at the Ar-Rahmah Mosque, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. In line with iGEM NYUAD team’s mission this year, she spoke to 25 students about the importance of food and personal hygiene in preventing pathogenic E. coli infection. This workshop is part of the iGEM NYUAD team’s human practices, demonstrating that the scope of iGEM NYUAD’s work includes not only developing a portable device to detect shiga-toxin producing E. coli in the lab, but also raising awareness of everyday hygienic practices, particularly in places where food safety remains a high concern.
