Personal Engagement The Community
We try to make biological science knowledge more accessible to the public, so at first we actively find ways to connect with the surrounding communities, that’s not very easy to us Chinese. Fortunately, on April 7, we made our first contact with the community named “Vanke ll”.
what is synthetic biology
It was our first time in the community. It was a trial. And then we'll explore new ways to get more people involved and learned something.
The activity may be evolved into an iGEM day! Which depends us!

On 6th June, in order to popularize the knowledge of synthetic biology, we team JiangnanU China focuses on children first, and we went to the TianEHu kindergarten to teach and promote the concept about biology.

Process
With the help of teachers, we started by playing a video to show the phage infection process and then asked kids a few questions. To our surprise, these kids were so brilliant that continually raised their hands to answer them, which showed a great interest in biology. Afterwards, we leaded them to draw pictures on the bacteria and phages. It came out that the kids were also very imaginative and smart and what they drew can vividly depict the appearance of them. After that, we prepared some puzzles with the graphics of phages and helped them finish doing the puzzle. During the process, the kids showed great team spirit, for example they worked together to recognize quickly which piece is the head or the tail of phages. Moreover, that their love for biology makes us feel that our project is really meaningful and the synthetic biology would be known by more individuals.
