12 March 2020Team Korea_HS created21 March 20201st zoom orientation meeting
: Initial team members met for the first time. We took a look at medal criteria as a team. The professor briefly explained last year’s experiment.4 April 20202nd zoom meeting
: The professor presented a detailed explanation for last year’s project. We talked about our goal for the project.25 April 20203rd zoom meeting
: Last year’s Korea_HS team members (Dyanne, Sunwoo, Bruce) joined the zoom call and shared their iGEM experience. We checked changes iGEM made due to pandemic. We divided the team into three sub-teams: human practice, collaboration, and wiki. Team members chose leaders for the team.23 May 20204th zoom meeting
: Each sub-team presented their goals for this competition.13 June 20201st in-person meeting
: Me each other for the first time in person. Talked about last year’s experiment and what changes we are going to make this year for an improvement.2 August 20202nd in-person meeting
: Took individual portraits and team pictures. Also, our student mentor Dyanne explained about last year’s experiment and gave tips and answered questions9 August 20203rd in-person meeting
: Had a zoom meeting with Professor Jungwoo Choe and talked about modeling and assay. After the zoom session, each sub-team held their own meeting for an hour.23 August 20204th in-person meeting
: Had team lunch and each sub-team had their own discussion for two hours.13 September 20205th zoom meeting
: Finalized individual bio and chose pictures that will be to used for wiki20 September 20206th zoom meeting
: Distributed parts for presentation slides rough draft and brainstormed ideas for the general theme and color of wiki27 September 20207th zoom meeting
: Set plans for wiki building and created folders for each menu and tab4 October 20208th zoom meeting
: Finalized the rough draft for presentation slides, and chose members to present11 October 20209th zoom meeting
: Went over uncompleted informations required for wiki building, built and designed the homepage and tabs on the website18 October 202010th zoom meeting
: Set plans for presentation and poster making, finalized informations used for wiki building25 October 202011th zoom meeting
: Went over the design and layout for wiki, distributed parts for the Presentation VideoExperiment
