Team Overview
Our team consists of 13 students from 5 colleges of South China Agricultural University, including College of Life Sciences, College of Mathematics and Informatics, College of Engineering, College of Veterinary Medicine, and College of Forestry. We work together and each member has his own task. The members of the wet lab are responsible for project design and experiments. The members of the dry lab are responsible for modeling. There are also members in charge of art, finance, and building wiki. In addition, we have five instructors and two former iGEM members who provide us with guidance in experiment, human practice, wiki and so on.
In this competition season, we have experienced many difficulties, but our strong faith allows us together to get through all the difficulties. We sincerely hope that we can contribute some useful biobricks to iGEM and make a slight change for the world!

Event manager
Cuntu Cheng
I firmly believe that "anything is possible". When we hold the genetic code in our hands, it is possible to draw a blueprint for the life we want. IGEM gives us the opportunity to bring our imagination closer to reality. This is also the first time I participated in a complete experimental project. Many interesting stories happened in this season. And this competition witnessed my growth.
Kaibin Zhang
