<p class="introduction-text">In Pasteur's day, the scientific disciplines were compartmentalized from each other. Today, scientific research promotes multidisciplinarity and collaboration to answer a problem. Collaboration plays an important role among iGEMers. Indeed, collaborations achieve goals that we will not achieve alone. This year Sorbonne U Paris 2018 has been collaboring with 9 iGEM teams from all over the world! A deeply connection between iGEM Go Paris Saclay and iGEM Bordeaux were born during the Parisian meetup (Paris, France). This page details the nature of our collaborations with another iGEM teams. <br> <br>After, clicking on our collaborators logos, you can read the name and the abstract of their project.</p></article></div>

<p class="introduction-text">The availability of new technologies has facilitated the exchanges worldwide and so promoted multidisciplinarity and collaboration in science. Collaboration is a key part among iGEMers. Indeed, collaborations help to achieve goals that would not be fulfilled alone. This year the Sorbonne U Paris 2018 team has been collaborating with 9 iGEM teams from all over the world. Herein, we detail the nature of all of our collaborations with these awesome teams with whom we shared great moments for which thank them a lot! <br> <br>By clicking on our collaborators' logos, you will have access to the abstract of their project.</p></article></div>

<p>Cytotoxic anticancer drugs are among the harmful chemicals found in hospital wastewater at high concentrations. Degradation through physical and chemical methods exist but are often inefficient, unsustainable or expensive. We propose MethotrExit, a bioreactor-based approach to tackle this problem. We focused on the biotransformation of methotrexate (MTX), a widely used anticancer drug. We designed synthetic cassettes encoding a new biotransformation pathway using a heterologous carboxypeptidase in Escherichia coli. In only five hours, MethotrExit drastically removes MTX from the media. However, anticancer drug degradation products and/or the biotransformation pathway itself might be toxic for E. coli. To overcome this issue, biobricks generating heterogeneity in enzyme expression were built to ensure survival of a subpopulation. Modeling of this system highlights the interest of a division of labor between “cleaning” and “stem” bacterial cells.</p>

       <p>iGEM Go Paris Saclay team is our fellow traveller. We share a very strong link between our two teams and together we confronted the obstacles. Due to the lack of mathematician in our team, the mathematicians of their team written the bases of our biomodelling, which we complete with the essential biological data, bound to the retrotransposon. Our modeling simulate the behavior of our retrotransposons. So, we were able to create a system allowing generating a data bank on the most advantageous transfers on the work, which allows targeting one or several transfers of interests. They were kind to help us and they enjoy to conceive this modelisation. <br> <br>

       <p>The iGEM Go Paris Saclay team and us have built a very strong relationship and have faced various challenges together. Their mathematicians introduced us to the bio-modeling bases. We could implement our essential retrotransposons' biological data into the model created together. Indeed, this model aimed to simulate the behavior of our retrotransposons. So, we are able to generate a data bank to select the best parts for our system. <br> <br>

           <p>“Friendship is born at that moment when one person say to another: “What! You too? I thought I was the only one.” (C.S Lewis). It is the perfect quotation to sum up our collaboration with iGEM Bordeaux. We first met at the Parisian meetup at Paris. We share the same idea of the conception of a iGEM project.  We don’t have any budget at the beginning of the iGEM season and we have built our project from A to Z. We rely only on our fundraising to achieve our project.<br><br>

           <p>“Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: “What! You too? I thought I was the only one.” (C.S Lewis). It is the perfect quote to sum up our collaboration with the iGEM Bordeaux team. We first met at the Parisian meetup in Paris (7th July 2018). As we share the same conception of an iGEM project, our partnership was obvious.   
We discussed to make a potential conference for our collaboration.  We also invited the team of GO Paris Saclay to join us to participate in the preparation of the conference. We tried to tackle the same problematic with our project but with different vision : environmental issues. The purpose of this collaboration is to set up a conference open to all. The theme would be: "What can  synthetic biology contribute to sustainable development?". They helped us to contact experts. Then , we broadcast a Facebook live during the conference.  They shared this video and broadcast in direct in the University of Bordeaux, so that the students and professors of Bordeaux can take advantage of the conference. </p>

           <p>Charlotte come from England and  for the summer holidays, she came back at home.  In July, Charlotte met the Newcastle team for a probable collaboration. Newcastle worked on an initial visual of our photobioreactor. We discussed with them for a collaboration in Human Practices part. We thought about to make a survey with them on the society’s opinion GMO and our projects. Unfortunately, we aborted this idea because of lack of time and we only work on the design of our photobioreactor. They help us to improve our photobioreactor after we met experts during the summer. They were really helpful and kind enough to help us.

           <p>One of our team member, Charlotte Bellamy, went to Newcastle University to meet the iGEM Newcastle team and discuss about a collaboration. The team worked on the 3D prototype of our initial photobioreactor. Furthermore, after meetings with experts, they kept supporting us in the improvement of our photobioreactor design.

           <p>This year 3 students from the iGEM Montpellier team 2018 came to Sorbonne Universite to pursue their master’s degree at Paris. So we invited 2 of them to join us to share with the pupils their knowledge, their lab skills and their vision of iGEM experience. Thus, we collaborated with two members of their team : Lea Meneu and Léo Carillo. They were in charge of the slides. We bought the material for the practical labs :Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ade- strain and lab equipments .We participated together in organization of the practical work. We met several times before the practical work for the organization of the TP and the purchase of equipment. We were glad to organize this practical work with Léa and Léo.

           <p>Léa Meneu and Léo Carillo, two students from the iGEM 2018 Montpellier team are pursuing their master’s degree at Sorbonne Université in Paris. So we invited them to help us introduce synthetic biology and the iGEM experience to high school students. To do so, practical sessions were organized. Several meetings between our teams were set to prepare the slides and purchase the equipments. Teaching students was a very nice opportunity to learn how to explain our project with simple words. </p>  
Teaching at students is a good experience and a good opportunity to learn how to explain our project with easy words. We shared a great moment with them.</p>

<p>Waiting for cells to grow is an enormous time sink for synthetic biologists. Cloning cycles with the current standard, Escherichia coli, typically take up to three days. In our project Vibrigens - Accelerating Synbio, we established the tools to turn Vibrio natriegens into the next generation chassis for synthetic biology, ready to be used reliably. By taking advantage of its unbeaten doubling time of 7 minutes, we substantially reduced waiting time and made one-day-cloning a reality. We built and characterized a flexible golden-gate-based part collection, consisting of more than 100 parts, which enables the creation of complex pathways in a short amount of time. Our engineered V. natriegens strains VibriClone and VibriExpress are designed for cloning and protein expression applications, respectively. Moreover, we established the first synthetic metabolic pathway in this organism by producing the platform chemical 3-Hydroxypropionate and along the way developed an accelerated workflow for metabolic engineering..</p>
 
<p>Waiting for cells to grow is an enormous time sink for synthetic biologists. Cloning cycles with the current standard, Escherichia coli, typically take up to three days. In our project Vibrigens - Accelerating Synbio, we established the tools to turn Vibrio natriegens into the next generation chassis for synthetic biology, ready to be used reliably. By taking advantage of its unbeaten doubling time of 7 minutes, we substantially reduced waiting time and made one-day-cloning a reality.

           <p>Charlotte come from England and  for the summer holidays, she came back at home.  In July, Charlotte met the Newcastle team for a probable collaboration. Newcastle worked on an initial visual of our photobioreactor. We discussed with them for a collaboration in Human Practices part. We thought about to make a survey with them on the society’s opinion GMO and our projects. Unfortunately, we aborted this idea because of lack of time and we only work on the design of our photobioreactor. They help us to improve our photobioreactor after we met experts during the summer. They were really helpful and kind enough to help us.

           <p>As a part of their Human Practices project, they aim to make the iGEM competition accessible to everyone.

Chemically induced dimerization (CID), in which two proteins dimerize only in the presence of a small molecule, has been widely used to control cell signaling, regulatory, and metabolic pathways, and used as logic gates for biological computation in living mammalian cells. However, few naturally occuring CID systems and their derivatives are currently available. Creating a CID system with desired affinity and specificity for any given small molecule remains an unsolved problem for computational design and other protein engineering approaches. To address this challenge, we have used a novel strategy to select CID binders from a vastly diverse combinatorial nanobody library. We have created new CID systems that can sense cholecalciferol and artemisinin. We are validating CID biosensors by a yeast three-hybrid system and built structural models to understand the small molecule-induced dimerization. Our work is a proof-of-concept that can be generalized to create CID systems for many applications. </p>

Duesseldorf created a project to promote synthetic biology using self-designed postcards. Every participating team designed a postcard related to synthetic biology or their respective project topic. To spread the iGEM team’s innovative ideas, different teams exchanged their postcards. The postcards were then received and collected all over the world and could be shared with the general public during events...
          </p>

The postcard we made reinvented the famous painting of the Liberty guiding the people: "La liberté guidant le peuple" by Eugène Delacroix. Our microalgae, Claude, is there leading the way to the Sugar Revolution.

Our collaborations

The availability of new technologies has facilitated the exchanges worldwide and so promoted multidisciplinarity and collaboration in science. Collaboration is a key part among iGEMers. Indeed, collaborations help to achieve goals that would not be fulfilled alone. This year the Sorbonne U Paris 2018 team has been collaborating with 9 iGEM teams from all over the world. Herein, we detail the nature of all of our collaborations with these awesome teams with whom we shared great moments for which thank them a lot!

By clicking on our collaborators' logos, you will have access to the abstract of their project.

iGEM Go Paris Saclay

The iGEM Go Paris Saclay team and us have built a very strong relationship and have faced various challenges together. Their mathematicians introduced us to the bio-modeling bases. We could implement our essential retrotransposons' biological data into the model created together. Indeed, this model aimed to simulate the behavior of our retrotransposons. So, we are able to generate a data bank to select the best parts for our system.

For more information about our modelling visit our modelling page.


On our side, Céline, our former wiki manager, taught some members of the iGEM Paris Saclay team to code, in order to realize their wiki page and Saniya has been an advisor.

Marie-Charlotte realized several sketches of their logo for a submission to a design agency.

They also took part in the organization of the conference untitled “What will synthetic biology bring to the future?” hosted on the Campus Pierre et Marie Curie of Sorbonne Université. They helped us contact experts and purchase food and materials for the buffet through a communal fund.

Further information about this conference are available on the Human practices pages section “Public engagement and education”.

iGEM Bordeaux

“Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: “What! You too? I thought I was the only one.” (C.S Lewis). It is the perfect quote to sum up our collaboration with the iGEM Bordeaux team. We first met at the Parisian meetup in Paris (7th July 2018). As we share the same conception of an iGEM project, our partnership was obvious. We invited them to participate to the organization of the conference “What will synthetic biology bring to the future?”. They helped us a lot to contact experts.

iGEM Newcastle

One of our team member, Charlotte Bellamy, went to Newcastle University to meet the iGEM Newcastle team and discuss about a collaboration. The team worked on the 3D prototype of our initial photobioreactor. Furthermore, after meetings with experts, they kept supporting us in the improvement of our photobioreactor design.

iGEM Montpellier

Léa Meneu and Léo Carillo, two students from the iGEM 2018 Montpellier team are pursuing their master’s degree at Sorbonne Université in Paris. So we invited them to help us introduce synthetic biology and the iGEM experience to high school students. To do so, practical sessions were organized. Several meetings between our teams were set to prepare the slides and purchase the equipments. Teaching students was a very nice opportunity to learn how to explain our project with simple words.

To learn more about this practical work at High school Maurice Genevoix (city of Montrouge),go to our Human practices page section “Public engagement and education”.

iGEM Marburg

As a part of their Human Practices project, they aim to make the iGEM competition accessible to everyone. The iGEM Marburg team sent us a message to participate in the design of an accessible wiki to everyone. Through several emails, we helped each other to write the guide “Accessible webdesign”. We tried to write the guide with easy words and bring examples so that beginners can easily apprehend this wiki concept. The long-term goal is for all iGEM teams to design their wiki without difficulties. We also helped each other improve various parts of our respective wikis. They made a logo to indicate that our wiki is accessible and we put it in the footer of our wiki.

To read the “accessible webdesign-guide navigation”, visit the Human practices page of iGEM Marburg.

iGEM IIT Madras


IIT Madras asked us for a collaboration to translate educational synthetic biology videos into our native languages. So we translated some of their video scripts to French, Italian and Persian. We also recorded the audio of some videos: the “DNA and RNA” video in French and Italian and the “introduction of synthetic biology” video in Persian. It was a real pleasure to help them in this fantastic initiative!

iGEM Washington


iGEM Washington team has created a Synthetic Biology Activity Booklet. This Booklet contains outreach activities for children. They wanted it to be accessible to the entire iGEM community. Therefore, they asked us to translate their booklet in French. This aims to allow the future French teams to improve their public engagement part by explaining synthetic biology to children with fun.

Duesseldorf created a project to promote synthetic biology using self-designed postcards. Every participating team designed a postcard related to synthetic biology or their respective project topic. To spread the iGEM team’s innovative ideas, different teams exchanged their postcards. The postcards were then received and collected all over the world and could be shared with the general public during events... The postcard we made reinvented the famous painting of the Liberty guiding the people: "La liberté guidant le peuple" by Eugène Delacroix. Our microalgae, Claude, is there leading the way to the Sugar Revolution.

We collaborated with the iGEM Pasteur team on the InterLab measurement study. We gave them the E. coli DH5 alpha strain they needed for the InterLab. In return, they answered some questions concerning the InterLab.
