Hi! I’m Chen-Yu Kao, one of the leaders this year. Besides distributing work and reaching other teams, I also help in other activities, such as visiting experts, biotech companies, and stock farms. I really enjoyed the process, since I’m a curious person and I like finding answers to my questions. I’m also passionate about programming, so I helped put up our website. It is such an honor to be a part of iGEM, and I have learned a lot. iGEM is definitely a unique part of my high school life, and it will be a lifelong memory.

Hello, my name is Michelle, one of the leaders of our team. I have a devoted passion for art, biology, and, most importantly, animals; hence, I’m honored to be given the opportunity to contribute to a project that could potentially enhance animal welfare. Aside from IGEM, I have held and participated in a myriad range of activities that also required skills such as collaboration and leadership. For instance, I was one of the main organizers of the 2022 Scientific Debate in Mingdao International Department (MDID), the founder of a Coral Rescuing Campaign and Loving Paws Fundraiser, and the winner of the 2019 MDID Science Fair. With these experiences, I strive to guide our team to success.
