We organized presentations of the different projects and poster sessions. The presentation was a project description in 180 secondes, in order to perform a tonic training session. It’s a chance for iGEMers to make a synthesis of their work. After the project presentation, we visited and discovered city . This meet up allowed the teams to better know each other and create strong social link. Then it was an excellent rehearsal and a great opportunity to develop our cooperation spirit. We thank Bordeaux, Grenoble, Montpellier, Pasteur Paris, Paris SorbonneParis Bettencourt, Barcelona and Madrid teams for coming in Marseille. We hope to perpetuate this international meet up and to meet them soon at the Giant Jamboree.

The snap presentations gave a very dynamic and a punchy training session. It was a chance for iGEMers to make a concise synthesis of their project. Additionnal poster sessions and bioethics round tables allowed a more thorough description of the project with a support and encouraged discussion about the projects in a relaxed atmosphere. After the project presentations, we all went on a visit to discover the city. This tour allowed the different teams to get to know each other better and create strong social links. The meet-up was an excellent rehearsal for presenting the project and a great opportunity to develop cooperation between teams. A big thank you to all the attendees for joining us in Marseille.

We are really looking forward to seeing you all again at the Giant Jamboree.
