Our team have 9 people to Shanghai to participate in the conference, which invited Dorothy, ambassador of Asia region, from NYU Shanghai. The meeting lasted for one day, and 13 teams participated. Each team introduced the 2018 iGEM competition content and briefly explained the 2019 project ideas and existing achievements. At the meeting, we exchanged views on academic issues. After the meeting, WeChat group provided channels for further understanding of iGEM teams.

Beijing institute of technology professor ChunLli came to our school for academic exchange. He expounds his view of the various aspects of from the angle of synthetic biology. At the same time, after each team to display, he review one by one and make the project optimization of overall. Mainly include the following: the individual level emphasizes the initiative, the teamwork level emphasizes on team management rules. And project need to reflect on the whole engineering thoughts and so on.

All iGEMers are supposed to achieve more in collaboration with each other, so here comes our Jilin meetup. Jilin_China and JiangnanU_China made a meetup and had invited members from NJTech_China, NEU_CHINA and NEFU to participate in.

At the opening ceremony, each team will introduce their team and project in turn, including the background, principle, system, parts and HP of each team's project. Each team will have 30min

The next day we brainstormed. We got together and put forward our ideas on synthetic biology and the project, and we had a heated discussion. The team, Jilin_China, suggested that we consider the heat-sensitive suicide mechanism in our project, which is more suitable for use in fermentation tanks. Previously, we were thinking about an optically controlled suicide switch.

This short but rich meetup gave us new ideas and made new friends on iGEM's way. We later visited the campus of jilin university. This is our schedule

At the opening ceremony, each team will introduce their team and project in turn, including the background, principle, system, parts and HP of each team's project. Each team will have 30min, (including 15min presentation+15min question time for other teams)

Brainstorming, including but not limited to: A. Suggestions on other teams' project contents, B. exchange of project design, difficulties in experiments and solutions, seeking cooperation, C. discussion on synthetic biology: a, exchange of interest directions, b, problems to be solved c, discussion of related policies, etc.

Closing, Jilin_China led interested teams to visit the laboratory and the campus of Jilin University

On August 20, 2019, the 6th international genetic engineering machine competition (iGEM) CCiC (Conference of China iGEMer Community) was held in the institute of synthetic biology, shenzhen institute of advanced technology, Chinese academy of sciences. The conference was sponsored by the institute of synthetic biology, shenzhen institute of advanced technology, shenzhen institute of synthetic biology and the executive committee of CCiC. Eight members of our team attended the meeting, which lasted for 4 days. We got to know many excellent iGEMers, benefited from their presentation, poster and some project ideas, and we also provided some inspiration for other iGEMers during the poster presentation. At the meeting, the judges proposed the guidance that was relevant to our project and enjoyed the process of knowledge collision. The end of the ccic meeting also marks that the competition has entered a tense period, and our team still has a lot to improve. All in all, we will work harder and meet Jamboree in October.
