Prize
This year Team BIT makes great efforts and have a try to make the project be realized on demonstrate. In the meanwhile we have achieved the criterion of five iGEM Prizes : Integrated Human Practices, Education and Public Engagement, Entrepreneurship, Hardware and Best New Composite Part. Now here are the details for these Prizes.
Based on JACOB, iGEM_BIT opened a platform at China Science and Technology Museum for ordinary communities to understand synthetic biology and microfluidic chip. And a survey had been made to over 300 foreigners. We also discussed with middle students deeply and visited three industries and two healthcare centers for our project.For details please refer to Wiki Page.Click Here to see the Engagement.
JACOB is offering a new interaction between healthcare and patients. Treatments are now based on preventive basis instead of passive and remedial. Diseases such as cancers will be less lethal when devices like JACOB being widely utilized. For countries like China having public healthcare system, such will be a great financial relief which actually saves “lives” and raise the living standard in comparison to insurance. Less conflicts would arise between patients and hospitals. Those advantages are drew upon JACOB being economical and user friendly, as well as being a non-invasive, safe diagnostic tools that is in the favor of public impressions and laws among many nations.Click Here to see the HP/Gold_Integrated.
JACOB’s portability, efficiency, and accessibility are built upon effectual inter-disciplinary applications of synthetic biology and hardware engineering. Aptamer bio-sensing and fluorescent protein expression are mapped within one microfluidic chip. It simplifies laboratory procedures and compresses requirement for sample inputs. Confocal optical systems are designed to recognize GFP and RFP simultaneously, remaining adaptable to variants. To sustain a consistent environment for host bacteria E. coli, we incorporated precise temperature management and bio-inert materials. Overall, JACOB’s core is a creative, evolvable artboard for future practices.Click Here.
An entrepreneurial adventure is always about extending or creating markets. After finishing the core, we recharacterized JACOB commercially based on investigations of the market and process of industrialization, in perspectives of consumers, commercial companies, and hospitals. Learned that traditional in vitro diagnosis is already taken, we focused on JACOB’s advantage of being affordable and interface-friendly to customers, in which we found that in China, though people desire healthy body, they tend to postpone health examinations. There is a market vacuum of household-level warning-diagnostic tools for serious diseases like cancer. JACOB right fits such role. Therefore, we interviewed a few commercial industries, and we are currently planning to resolve mass productions jointly cooperating with other institutes or capitals.Click Here to see the Entrepreneurship.
