We are GreatBay-SCIE 2023, 19 high-school students that consistently growing from synthetic biology and persistently caring about the local community. Although our capability is far from being possible to succeed in overcoming grand challenges across the entire human race, we would like to contribute to everyday local issues with our creative, thoughtful, responsible and regorous minds.
This year, we took a closer look at the invasive species, Giant African Snails, that has already overlaid everywhere in our city, Shenzhen China. After over nine months of persistent endeavor, of which we have been self-driven to independently conduct a vast majority of brainstorms, researches, experiments, social interactions and implementations, GAStroPurifer, a comprehensive and templated solution aiming at minimizing the harmful influences caused by Giant African Snails, is unveiled in iGEM 2023 with incredible excitement.
The name GreatBay-SCIE has witnessed countless inspirations, explorations, frustrations and creations for the past nine months. As a collaborative team, we cherished everybody's enthusiasm and contribution with ardent gratitude and appreciation; as a loving family, we shared joy and tears all the way to the destination.
During the iGEM journey, GreatBay-SCIE is sincerely grateful for all the voices of our beloved communties. It is the profound external support and assistance that enrich our projects with the highest possible level of integrity, practicability and responsiveness to local issues, and shape us as high-school students to be concerned, responsible and confident for the future of synthetic biology and our world.
The endless source of efforts and supports enabled us to start the project with growing curiosity and end the journey with unforgettable memory. The project timeline then marked the milestones of our persistent attempts to pursue flourishing achievements.
GreatBay-SCIE maintains permanent love and responsibility to our community through the whole nine-month implementation and development of GAStroPurifier. The nourishment from our communities supports us keep evaluating and refining our project with advancing synthetic biology, and together we and all of our involved communities will be constructively working towards the ultimate goal: ecological balance.
