Safety training:

In our safety training, we have learnt much. The topics about our Safety training are:

Safety requirements in the lab
Dos and don'ts when using hazardous chemicals
Dos and don'ts for using lab instruments
Possible hazards that can be caused by lab instruments and cases of accidents
Emergency treatment such as CPR

In details, our safety requirements are:

Lab-grow and gloves must be worn at all times for work in the laboratory. Personnel must wash their hands after experiments, and before they leave the laboratory working areas. Open-toed footwear must not be worn in laboratories. Eating, drinking, smoking, applying cosmetics, handling contact lenses and sleeping is prohibited in the laboratory working areas. Protective laboratory clothing that has been used in the laboratory must not be stored in the same lockers or cupboards as street clothing.

Future scientists

On the 7th June 2014, our team held the Future scientists activity with our college.

Many kids aged 10-15 years old came here to get a lesson: The genetic of life and DNA Extraction from spinage.

First, Li Shangjing explained the relationship between genetics and DNA and the structure of DNA found course and gene expression, etc.

Then, we talked iGEM and synthetic biology with our iGEM bricks, we were excited that kids are very interesting to that, we truly talk a lot.

Last, we helped kids with how to extract the DNA from spinage, they are really smart!
