Three synthetic biology engineering cycles and two procedural engineering cycles have been posted on our wiki. This records the Design-Build-Test-Learn cycle we went through during the gene design, plasmid construction and result verification process.

We have consulted experts, organizations and industry stakeholders. And we also collaborated with other iGEM teams to ensure we can all benefit from peer-peer scientific discussions.

Through our public survey, we better understood the lack of knowledge among the community.

By visiting the Hong Kong Anti-Cancer Society, we have shown our care and gained a much deeper understanding of their plight.

We have organized a general public talk, designed and implemented a comprehensive and replicable education curriculum. An Instagram page was also launched to raise awareness of prostate cancer and educated teens on how to initiate a discussion on the touchy subject of prostate cancer.

Criteria	Items	Details
Excellence in Synthetic Biology: Education	Promoting Mutual Learning	Our education program allowed students to learn about genes and cancer. Mutual learning is also achieved as we ourselves are also students. For more, please refer to our education page
	Documented in a way that others can build upon	The education curriculum and materials have been uploaded to the wiki. We have also shown the performance of the students on our wiki. These could all be used edited to fit different local settings. For more, please refer to our education page
	Thoughtfully implemented	We taught primary school students and junior secondary school students in our school. For more, please refer to our education page
	Encourage more people to contribute/participate in synthetic biology	We have promoted synthetic biology to the students during our lesson. They also have a better understanding of synthetic biology as per our findings in the education report. For more, please refer to our education page
Excellence in Synthetic Biology: Integrated Human Practices	Integrate throughout the project	External parties such as oncology experts, industry stakeholders, patients and organizations have helped steer us in the right way. For more, please refer to our human practice page
	Documented in a way that others can build upon it	We have clearly communicated the process and the results of our work in our wiki, so that future teams can be inspired by and build upon our work. For more, please refer to our human practice page
	Thoughtfully implemented	We have conducted a general public talk and launched Instagram to raise awareness of prostate cancer For more, please refer to our human practice page
	Explain the context and rationale	We have explained the context and rationale of our project in the experimental design page and engineering page.
	Incorporate different stakeholder views	We have invited different experts to contribute to our engineering cycle, which allows us to reshape and remodel our project. Our idea was inspired by our school’s 2023 iGEM team and the results of public survey For more, please refer to our human practice page
	Help create a project that is responsible and good for the world	The product of our project is more speedy and more affordable, this hopes to propel our society to provide even more low cost prostate cancer screening services to the general public.
Excellence in Synthetic Biology: New Composite Part	Documented on the registry in a good way	The composite parts of our project are documented in a detailed way. For more, please refer to our part page
	The part works as expected	We successfully constructed the plasmids and obtained positive results. For more, please refer to our result page and engineering page
	Useful to the community	Our project can provide a more affordable and more speedy prostate cancer screening method to our community.
	Well characterized	Our results are measured with advanced devices and appropriate methods. For more, please refer to our engineering page
