Collaborations

IGEM Marburg asked us if we would like to participate in their collaboration project, which is an Interlab Study of their own design. They wanted us to measure the growth rate of the marine bacterium Vibrio natriegens, by growing it in a liquid LB V2 medium and check the OD600 value every 10 minutes over a period of 5 hours. The measurements were done using the spectrophotometry and we made a growth curve of V. natriegens for Marburg.
Vibrio Natriegens is a fast-growing bacterium, with a generation time around 8-10 minutes. As of today, E. coli is the commonly used laboratory bacterium, however this bacteria’s generation time is around 20 minutes. V. natriegens could potentially be a substituent as a laboratory model organism, due to their shorter generation time.
The goal of this collaboration is to investigate if the growth rate of V. natriegens is consistent between all the iGEM teams that are participating in Marburgs Interlab study. We did the growth experiment two times and obtained the growth curves illustrated in figure 1 and 2.

Silver Medal Criterion #2

Complete this page if you intend to compete for the silver medal criterion #2 on collaboration. Please see the 2018 Medals Page for more information.

Which other teams can we work with?

You can work with any other team in the competition, including software, hardware, high school and other tracks. You can also work with non-iGEM research groups, but they do not count towards the iGEM team collaboration silver medal criterion.

In order to meet the silver medal criteria on helping another team, you must complete this page and detail the nature of your collaboration with another iGEM team.

Here are some suggestions for projects you could work on with other teams:

  • Improve the function of another team's BioBrick Part or Device
  • Characterize another team's part
  • Debug a construct
  • Model or simulate another team's system
  • Test another team's software
  • Help build and test another team's hardware project
  • Mentor a high-school team
