GENERAL SUPPORT

Wuhan University provides the opportunity for us to attend iGEM. And the comprehensive of Wuhan university makes our team a interdisciplinary one. Our team members come from College of life Sciences, Hongyi Honor College, School of Mathematics and Statisitics and School of Computer Sciences.

PROJECT SUPPORT AND ADVISER

PI

We appreciate our PI a lot for they gave us a lot of supporting and suggestion on our projects. When we had some new ideas they always encouraged us to have a try and helped us to achieve them. At the same time, they left enough space for ourselves to complete our own project which let us learn a lot from this experience.

Experts of museums

To complete our project, we paid visits to a lot of museums and interviewed several experts in silk relics restoration. From them we got a lot of improvements suggesting and a certain amount of approval. You can see specific attribution in Integrated HP.

HP SUPPORT

These museums provided us the opportunities of visiting and interviewing, which gave a lot of inspirations to our project.

iGEMer SUPPORT

We appreciated these iGEM teams a lot for some of them providing a lot of improvement advice for our project and some of them gave us experimental help. We made good friends with these teams in iGEM competition! You can learn specific help in collaboration.
