To spark the interest of science and medicine in the younger audience while educating them about scientific concepts, we created a series of comic book, written and illustrated by the CityU iGEM team member Ho-Jung Choe.
The first comic book “The adventures of Dr Secure and Gemma” follows the journey of two main characters as they explore the fascinating world of synthetic biology. Together, they introduce young readers to key scientific concepts such as PCR and CRISPR‑Cas9, showing how these tools can be used to design and create new biological components. Through their adventures, Dr. Secure and Gemma make complex topics accessible and fun, inspiring curiosity about the possibilities of genetic engineering and the future of biology.
