DNA Race
With the purpose of the iGEM CIDEB Team divulgation inside our high school, we prepared DNA Week. If we want everyone to know more about iGEM and that our high school is participating, we must start inside the institution. Even though CIDEB had been active for two years before us, many students still do not know what it is about. People know about trends, programs, artists, a new song or video game before it is published, but if you ask for science, very few people know something about it, and even less about synthetic biology. We have a vision of having people concerned about science, about synthetic biology, about iGEM, and we are going to reach it.
