In order to encourage junior high school students to love biology, we held two lectures in secondary schools near Shenzhen Middle School. The first one was held on June 3, 2014 at Lianhua Middle School([http://lhzx.szftedu.cn/index.aspx 莲花中学]), and the second one was held on June 6 at junior high part of Shenzhen Middle School([http://www.shenzhong.net/news/page/aboutjunior.html 深圳中学初中部]).

Three members of our team Zhang, Jing and Wang went to LMS on June 3, 2014, where they did the first publicity to the junior highs.Approximately 50 students gathered to attended our lecture. They showed high interest in Biology especially Biochemistry and Synthetic Biology. We showed them some paintings we drew with E-coli expressing GFP, RFP and YFP. Some students complained ‘why this interesting competition does not allow junior high students to attend.’Some of them think our project is useful to farm that our project can help the farmers in cold areas grow their plants better. While some others thought our project could be used in some other fields like planet conquering.

During the lecture given in Shenzhen Middle School(Secondary School) on June 6, an increasing amount of curious students came to our lecture. Despite the fact that they are currently only a group of 12- to 14-year-old students, they were excellent audiences and were strongly motivated by their interest in biology to ask us any questions, some of which even refer to the principle of this competition. What these intelligent students asked, is not only the functions of the current design, but also the possible improvements of it. What we have seen from them is exactly a spirit desperately needed for the future scientific workers. In the end of our lecture, we even received future challenge from some students, who wanted to take part in iGem next year and were confident to defeat us in the future. What our lecture has brought to these young enthusiastic sharp minds is not only the information about genetic biology and our project, but also an idea, a strongly motivated drive to get into this field further.
