About our team
Consisting of 13 high school students from Suzhou, with unique interests and talents in different realms, SZ-SHD is a team driven by curiosity and passion. Aiming to solve problems by applying investigated mechanisms and theories relating to synthetic biology. Most of us are active members of the Agricultural Science and Biotech Colab under Suzhou High School of Jiangsu Province (Suzhou High School, SHS) and Dulwich International Highschool Suzhou(DHSZ). In addition to iGEM competition, we've also utilized these "resources" to investigate microbes, hydroponic systems and other quires in bio-technology.

Leader of wet lab Before I became an iGEMer, synthetic biology is such an advanced and sophisticated field of study for me. But participating in iGEM gives our team an opportunity to explore it by ourselves: performing experiments, analyzing results, and having fun. Most importantly, iGEM gives me a chance to "graffiti" the walls of a lab.
What's up, Brandon here. This is my second year participating in IGEM but first time as a team leader. Hopefully you aren't too creeped out by my team's unique design for the wiki (and if you are, it was intentional so thanks!). IGEM 2020 has truly been an exceptional journey for me and I am very grateful to be a part of it. For times when I'm not working, you can find me either chilling by the Jingji lake or napping on a couch.
I am happy to attend the iGEM competition again this year. Participating in iGEM allows me to explore ourselves: performing experiments, analyzing results. I aspire to pursue the study of molecular biology and eventually become a biologist to improve the world.
I am Artemis from DHSZ, love biology and chemistry and intend to continue with these studies in University. Joining the iGEM program of research on biopesticides which could protect plants while being environmental friendly makes me enthusiastic.
It's beyond doubt that you reap what you sow. Hi, here is Ciel, a biology student who wants to become a lawyer.
It is my pleasure to participate in the iGEM competition and discover my potential in diverse fields. Throughout our project, I deepened my understanding of biochemistry and recognized people with the same ambitions. In the future, I aspire to pursue the study of chemical engineering and eventually become a chemist to improve the world.
My name is William, I am a student, a Y12 student at DHSZ.I have a dream that one day our vegetables won't be threatened by the locusts. One day on the farmland, the farmer will be able to sit down and have a rest instead of being busy to protect their crops from pests.
Here comes the tool man who's adept at filling the job vacancies in experiments and Wiki image designing! Although we aren't able to include real locusts this time in our experiments, it is still my dream to major in Zoology and Environmental Science.
It's my pleasure to have that experience of collaboration with my friends in iGEM, which has been a very good opportunity to practice my ability as a leader and socialization. Besides, I would like to develop my interest in biology and participate in iGEM again in the future.
It’s an honor to cooperate with my excellent mates and get to know more about synthetic biology. IGEM really helps me fostering my interest in bioscience，which is going to be my major in college.
Wiki man and also doing some wet lab stuff in this team and some video making. I was quite interesting in biology then I found CS is my true love, future major might be Software / Game Design.
It has always been a pleasure to work with a group of people who have the same goals and interests with me. IGEM is a platform which makes me have chance to have a great teamwork with others. Apart from making new friends, working in such a well-equipped laboratory is also a novel experience to me.
I'm Dongming Piao and I'm now Year 13. I've participated in iGem as a web programmer. And I'm planning to study my major in EE in the future.
