<p> Team 2014 NYMU-TAIPEI was a gather of 19 iGEM beginners when it was formed in early 2014, however this far, we found ourselves maniacs in synthetic biology. In the past several months, we have been trying to develop a sustainable and auto-controlled way to cure caries, which may be a good blessing for the elderly and toddlers. </p>
<p> Cherishing every mistakes and possibilities we have explored, we humble learners are grateful in front of knowledge and our helpers. In some day we hope, may all our dreams break into blossoms.</p>
