Was responsible for writing the script of the promotion video; Responsible for communicating with the instructor; Participated in communication with other teams and attended relevant meetings; Responsible for the overall coordination of the team's daily work and the safety management of the laboratory.

Hi, everyone! I am always willing to explore new things. In this project, I primarily completed the component cleaning verification phase. The field of biological sciences is full of opportunities and challenges, and it is a domain worth exploring. I am looking forward to realize my dreams and contribute to human health and well-being in this field!

Chen Qihao, a Lanzhou University student, was responsible for experimental validation of antimicrobial peptides' antibacterial efficacy in his research team. Using standardized agar diffusion assays, he conducted tests on rock wall-isolated bacterial strains with negative and positive controls, measuring inhibition zones of recombinant antimicrobial peptides from LP3, LP11, and engineered strains against rock wall-associated pathogens. He also extracted secreted antimicrobial peptides to verify their antibacterial activity. Additionally, he assisted in negative/positive control experiments for rock wall-isolated fungi and participated in validating antifungal effects of the team-developed antimicrobial peptide-producing strains.

I am a student from Cuiying College of Lanzhou University. My name is Jinzuo Han.I am responsible for testing the ability of modified bacteria to clean melanin and β-carotene in the iGEM team.In the genetically modified E. coli, there are plasmids for laccase, peroxidase, and scaffold proteins. My task is to determine whether the three enzymes can bind to form a complex and to test whether this complex has better cleaning ability on melanin and β-carotene compared to free laccase and peroxidase.In the team, I not only participate in conducting experiments but also in designing them. Additionally, during the experimental process, I handle the analysis of experimental failures or results that differ from expectations.

Hello everyone! I'm Li Shaoyang. I'm a member of the wet lab group in the project, and I'm responsible for plasmid purification and protein extraction in the experiments. My major is biotechnology, so I'm quite familiar with the knowledge related to my major, especially for this project. I've always been passionate about exploring the intricacies of biological processes and understanding how they can be harnessed for innovative applications. I look forward to learning from each of you and personally through this experience.

As a Clinical Medicine undergraduate at Lanzhou University and an active member of the LZU iGEM team, Wang Kaiwen contributed to the Human Practices group by developing and delivering educational outreach programs. He helped design interactive workshops and science communication materials for local schools and communities, making synthetic biology more accessible to the public. Through this experience, he enhanced his communication and collaborative skills and deepened his interest in the social dimensions of synthetic biology.

I am Ye Ziheng, a 20-year-old undergraduate from Guangdong, China, currently pursuing my studies in the Biology Cuiying Program (Class of 2023) at Cuiying Honors College of Lanzhou University. My interests include watching anime, playing badminton, table tennis, and basketball, and I aspire for world peace. My current research focuses on the developmental mechanisms of the apical meristem in Arabidopsis thaliana. Additionally, I am proficient in various biological experimental techniques such as botany, cell biology, and molecular biology, and have developed strong laboratory habits. In this year's iGEM project with the LZU team, I participated in and was responsible for designing the suicide cassette for engineered E. coli, testing its functionality, and optimizing its sequence, ultimately achieving the goal of preventing plasmid leakage.

As a medical student, I mainly participate in wetlab helping with the extraction of protein. About myself, I quite enjoy raising hypothesis and proving them in the lab. Every small success fascinates me. And I do thinks through iGEM I gain some synthetic biology skills, which you can't learn in medical research. I used to like complete all the experiment by myself, but I realize that without collaboration, such a comprehensive study in this competition is impossible for a single dog. That maybe the most precious lesson I learn from this encounter with everyone else.

I am a sophomore majoring in Biological Sciences at Cuiying Honors College, Lanzhou University, enrolled in 2023.
In our team's participation in the iGEM competition, I have been primarily responsible for the wet lab work. My core tasks have centered around the transformation, expression, and purification of plasmids containing genes for target proteins—specifically laccase, peroxidase, and scaffold protein. Additionally, I have designed and conducted experiments to detect the cleaning capabilities of these proteins.
Through meticulous experimental design, rigorous data collection, and continuous optimization of protocols, I have made significant contributions to advancing our project. I am fully committed to supporting the team and am eager to see ourcollective efforts lead to excellent results in the competition.
