Our primary mission was to unravel the complexities of synthetic biology, presenting them in an engaging manner suitable for all ages, especially sparking the curiosity of young minds intrigued by STEAM subjects. To achieve this, we meticulously curated topics aligned with our project's objectives, seamlessly blending fundamental concepts into our scripts. We crafted these scripts to deliver digestible, bite-sized pieces of information, ensuring that learning becomes an easy and enjoyable endeavor. Infusing vibrancy, we enlivened the content with captivating animations, enhancing the overall learning experience.
We opted to begin with a formal introduction to iGEM, a term not widely recognized. Recognizing iGEM's interdisciplinary and integrated nature, we decided to cover topics across various subteams within our project. We started by delving into both wetlab and drylab aspects, with a commitment to continue this series into the future. Since computational work has become so heavily integrated into wet lab experiments, we decided to animated a video overviewing the importance of what protein modeling is and why it has become such an important aspect of research. Finally, for wet lab, given that our project this year focused on using a CFPS platform, something not widely understood, we sought to cover the concept of a CFPS reaction by detailing what it is, why it is used and why it is quickly becoming popular platform for protein production.
