COLLABORATIONS

AALTO-HELSINKI iGEM TEAM

We met members of the Aalto-Helsinki team at the European meetup in Munich and after discussing both of our project, we realised that a collaboration could be done. We talked on Skype and realised we had the same construction with our carbohydrates binding module but we were not experimenting on the same material: they were using cellulose nanofibrils from birch and we were using bacterial cellulose produced by Gluconacetobacter hansenii.
We decided to realise our CBM affinity tests on both materials. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to test each other's material but it was a great opportunity to compare our porjects.

BORDEAUX iGEM TEAM

We met the Bordeaux iGEM team at both the french and european meetup. They are working on blablablaaaa.
We visited them in Bordeaux from the 24th to the 26th of August and gave them 5g of bacterial cellulose.

HUMAN PRACTICES COLLABORATION

We skype the ULaval iGEM team during the summer to talk about collaborations. It quickly appeared that a scientific collaboration was going to be difficult because our projects were not connected but the idea of collaborating on human practices seemed great.
Both of teams have advisors who are specialists in ethic so we thought about reviewing each other’s HP plans. We found the idea of comparing the point of views of Europeans and North Americans interesting. To complete our study, we asked the National University of Singapore (NUS) iGEM team to join us, so we could have an asian point of view.

iGEM FRANCE

MEETUPS

4th Parisian Meetup

On the 4th of July, we gathered with all the french iGEM teams to participate in the 4th parisian meetup organised by the Pasteur Paris iGEM team.
It was the first time that we presented our project to others and we got the feedback of a jury composed of various professionals. To be given advices by the jury and the other iGEM team was interesting and very helpful to improve our presentation and our way to communicate about our project.
Seeing everyone’s projects and how they managed to progress gave us an overall idea of what was left to do and where we should put more efforts.
We also got the chance to participate in round tables about bioethics, which was very interesting.

European Meetup in Munich

On the 21st and 22nd of July, we attended the European Meetup in Munich.
The different talks were very interesting and we had the chance to ask Katrin Lang, one of the speaker, for advice about some worries we had with our part involving unnatural amino acids.
The poster session was a great opportunity to practice introducing our project to the other teams. The feedbacks and tips we received from the other teams were very helpful to improve our poster for the oncoming events.
This meetup was also a good opportunity to talk about collaborations and to get to know each other by spending time with the other teams.

MONTPELLIER iGEM TEAM

POSTCARD PROJECT

We took part in Düsseldorf’s project to exchange postcards about synthetic biology.

We decided to have a photo of our city, Toulouse, on the frond and a world map on the back with Toulouse marked by a dog’s paw to remind of our mascot and project, Cerberus.

SURVEYS

We filled surveys for the following teams:

  • Bielefeld: questionnaire about Dual Use and Dual Use Research of Concern
  • Bordeaux: Human practices survey
  • Duesseldorf: survey iGEM Duesseldorf 2018
  • Lund: iGEM workplace evaluation
  • Montpellier: project Vagineering
  • Pasteur Paris: NeuronArch : prothèse, infection et interface… la biologie de synthèse au service du progrès
  • Uppsala: iGEM work environment evaluation

No dogs were harmed over the course of this iGEM project.
