In iGEM, competitors always have a hard time finding helpful information. However, with the help of BioDesigner Dolphin now, competitors do not have to worry about the problem mentioned above and they just need to type what they are looking for into the searching box of BioDesigner, then the results will be exhibited as expected. What’s more, BioDesigner also integrates a design panel in which competitors can design their own biobricks conveniently. To further spark their inspiration, we also provide the recommended biobricks for users. Users can also find a gene relationship shown in a big relationship map in BioDesigner which can help to find relationships among genes quickly and easily. Chemical compounds and relationships among them can also be retrieved using BioDesigner. Papers and diseases related to these compounds are also presented. We sincerely hope BioDesigner Dolphin can help iGEMers and synthetic biologists.
