Initially, our team was divided into three groups for paper discussion and experiments. We hoped we could use these simple group division to make our teammates learn how to complete our teamwork.

One thing special about our team is that over 90% of us is freshmen. This made our team more creative but also presented many difficulties due to our relative lack of professional knowledge and training. Fortunately, we have many advisers to help us conquer these difficulties. They not only teach us the basic concepts and knowledge of iGEM, but they also let us think and try instead of doing the work for us. Therefore, our entire project is completed by our team members themselves with our instructors and advisers providing their opinions.

After a few months, we divided our team into experiment group, wiki group, art group, and presentation group in hopes of making everyone do what they do best.

CHAO-DI CHANG

NCTU Formosa 2014 TEAM18.jpg Hello everyone, my name is Chao-Di Chang, and I am a master student from National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan R.O.C. I am the modeling assistant of the 2014 NCTU_Formosa iGEM team. This is my first time being a member of iGEM team, cause my major is bioinformatics researching which is pretty far from synthetic biology and genetic engineering. However, the biological background of synthetic biology in iGEM is really easy to understand which means the idea of our project; the innovation is the most important thing in iGEM project. So all the iGEMers work really hard to perform their delicate biological device once a year, and I am so proud to be a part of it.
