Collaborations

Throughout the months, we realized that iGEM was much more than a competition. This turned out to be a great opportunity to meet new people all around the world and work together to overcome the obstacles that pop up during the development of projects or simply to make the iGEM season even more fun and interesting. Looking back, we realized that our team got a bit way too excited for meeting and collaborating with other members of the community. We had the opportunity to interact and make friends with people from different countries and help each other with our projects. But we did not want our relationship with the other teams to be based only on serious technicalities, so that is is why we organized and participated in several activities to spread iGEM’s love!.

Latin American MeetUp

Card image cap

While working on a project it is essential to receive feedback from experts and teams working in the same area to improve your work. Thus, we reached out to all Latin American teams for them to assist our Meetup, held on July 13th of the present year. We got the participation of 8 teams, these being teams from Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Tec-Chihuahua, Tec Monterrey and TecMonterrey_GDL. Throughout the event, the members and representatives of each team had the opportunity to present their project. These presentations were divided, some of them were online and the other ones were face-to-face. The experts asked a series of questions so that the teams could be aware of any mistakes or misconceives, and received recommendations to improve their projects.
After the presentations, we had the opportunity to meet and interact with the members of the other teams. With this integration activity, we had the chance to participate and encourage collaborations between the teams.

Thanks to this event, we were able to analyze the obstacles of our project and find other alternatives and implement them. There’s no doubt the feedback provided by the specialists was crucial for the proper development of the projects, and beyond the scientific issues, we were able to get to know each other, get along and create bonds of collaboration and reciprocal support between the teams.

Finally, our MeetUp had such a great impact that it appeared in the magazine of our university CONECTA, so all the professors and students hear about it. The note can be found in the following link. https://tec.mx/es/noticias/estado-de-mexico/investigacion/realizan-el-primer-meet-de-igem-nivel-latinoamerica
