NCTU_Formosa: Education and Public Engagement
Education
- Promotion of Synthetic Biology and iGEM

     Bring the concept of Synthetic biology to the public. Sparkle Biology with interdisciplinary awareness to the students and the public.

  1. Syn-bio camp: extension of abilities for iGEMers
  2. IoT camp: extension of abilities for iGEMers

Bio camp for science-gifted students in Taichung First Senior High School

     To promote the concept of synthetic biology and the iGEM competition, we held a summer bio camp for teaching some general knowledge of synthetic biology to high school students from July 24st to July 28st. Also, we taught them how we constructed biobricks with restriction sites and regulated the gene expression via the design of promoters and encouraged them to think the problem from different angles by combining engineering and synthetic biology. Furthermore, we presented the project of NCTU_Formosa 2016 to them for an instance.

Figure 1: Photo of the Bio camp held in National Chiao Tung University for the students from TCFSH

IoT camp for science-gifted students in Taichung First Senior High School - the extension of synthetic biology in iGEM to engineering

     Our team considers the ability of hardware and software important as biology is, so from July 17th to July 21st, NCTU_Formosa held an IoT camp to promote the application of IoT. During the camp, we introduced basic electronic components, electronic circuits to the students, and the compiling of a micro-controller platform, Arduino. And what is also important is that the application of IoTtalk. With these techniques, they can try building an automatic mobile vehicle. The lessons we provided included a speech delivered by Dr. Jason Yi-Bing Lin, who did good research in the field, and a Makerathon for students to make their own project.

A Visit from City University of Hong Kong

     On May 23rd, City University of Hong Kong came to National Chiao Tung University to visit the Department of Biological Science and Technology. In this event, NCTU_Formosa introduced iGEM to them, while most of them majored in engineering. They learned about our project in recent four years, having lunch with us after the event. During the time we were together, the ideas from different fields, biology and engineering, started to combine together and sparkled new thoughts. They said that our project sounded amazing, showing a great interest to take part in iGEM. We look forward to seeing them participating in iGEM in the future.

Public Engagement
- Discussion and Sparkle on Synthetic Biology Application - the birth of our project

     Bring the concept of Synthetic biology to the public. Sparkle Biology with interdisciplinary awareness to the students and the public.

  1. Introduction of Synthetic Biology and iGEM to public
  2. The inspiration of our project - application of Synthetic Biology
  3. the fulfillment of our project - pursuing smart agriculture

Green agricultural market “Green You ii Me” - sparkling ideas with the biological application on agriculture

     We were glad to have the chance to participate in the green agricultural market "Green You ii Me", which was held at the NTHU campus in weekends and farmers there promoted the concept of green, organic agriculture, and organic products. The experience inspired practical applications of our system.

     After talking to the farmers, we found that farmers were suffering a serious defeat from the agricultural system and they generally lacked of the knowledge of biopesticides. Through overall investigation, the epidemic diseases caused by fungi needed a systematically and accurately applicable method to solve.

Fungal diseases needs to be controlled effectively

     Once the environmental conditions reaches, the pathogen will germinate and infect the host and other plants rapidly which is highly contagious. Due to the hazardous infectiousness of fungi, we came out an conclusion that designing the “prevention” would be more effective than only "treatments".

The concept and the promotion of biopesticides and systematically compiling could take over the abusing of chemical pesticides.

     The current agriculture is lacking of exploration and promotion of biopesticides. There are useful information recorded in databases on the Internet, but farmers have no access to it, and also they have no way to record the situation of their own farms. Establishing a system to aggregate new data and do further arrangement or analysis would be helpful for farms and also create more values on the research of biopesticides, which is a Win-win strategy. After all, the success of more cases could be the best way to convince other farmers to use biopesticides.

Farmers who implement organic agriculture are actually not familiar to the knowledge of biopesticides.

     Biopesticides are more likely to degrade in the environment, comparing to chemical pesticides, and almost proteins or peptides also have many features and mechanisms. Nonetheless, theories, experiments in labs and all information would be useless for farmers unless we introduce them in user-friendly ways. Farmers should know "When to use “and “Which kind of biochemical pesticide should be used” to have the best function, or they might not get the expected effect. Thus, basic knowledge and information is one of the key points for farmers to trust biopesticides.

Fulfillment of Smart Agriculture – Taiwan Productivity 4.0 Initiative

     Taiwan Agro-Productivity 4.0 Initiative integrates intelligent and digital technology into traditional industry, trying to bring Knowledge Intensive Industry into Wisdom Intensive Industry. Let the 3.0 industrial revolution which uses electronics and IT to achieve automation of manufacturing to level up to 4.0 industrial revolution based on Cyber-Physical System.

     To promote biologically agricultural usage and break through the bottleneck of fungal diseases in the same time, turning the traditional agriculture into a high-tech advantage level is the best way . It’s important to increase economic efficiency and lower the environmental cost. We combined these models to deal with more problems to be competitive:

- IoT

- Cloud Computing

- Big Data

     On 28 July, we attended the ASIA AGI-TECH EXPO & FORUM, which was held in Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center. We tried to refresh our idea on the project to with the perspective of technology. We became more familiar with the application of automated storage management monitoring platform and cloud computing, and also knew the importance of our project that can make good contributions to humans.
