In our view, Science Communication should not be a transitory action. Knowing, understanding, falling in love with synthetic biology and then creating a better world with synthetic biology tools from a gradual process. So we set up our media online and offline to release articles related to synthetic biology, hoping to influence people in a stable frequency. We did harvest an unexpected result!
Monthly Project
Toward the middle school students, who know something about biology but not so much deep, we released a monthly magazine to broaden their horizon in the area of biology. To ensure the monthly magazine have abundant and various knowledge, we invited NAU and ECUST to complete two pieces of magazines. We believe that an increasing number of iGEM teams will join us and deliver it all the time. The operation of the periodicals will be passed down to the next iGEM team in our university and more and more students can acquire biological knowledge through our monthly magazines.

Long-term Impact based on WeChat Account
We created an official account in WeChat named “江南iGEM”(iGEMers from Jiangnan University) . In this subscription, we released original articles once or twice a week. To guarantee the diversity of our articles and attract more audience, the articles we released were divided into 4 parts——'education about novel Coronavirus', 'spreading basic knowledge of synthetic biology science','exploration about some interesting biological knowledge in our daily life','the progress about our team and project'.
We have released 34 articles and these articles have been read accumulative totally more than 4000 times up to now.
After more than half a year's exploration, we feel that after completing the iGEM, we can even continue to popularize synthetic biology through our official account. In our articles, people can view our life from a new perspective. We also gained a lot of interesting knowledge when collecting raw data, and this kind of fulfillment is what we enjoy.
