Atlanta Science Festival Collaboration with GSU | March 24, 2018
Summary Points
Atlanta Science Festival is a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing people together through the wonders of science. This organization was founded in 2014 by Emory University, Georgia Tech, and Metro Atlanta Chamber. This event is an annual two-week festival that celebrates local science and technology, featuring more than 100 events and reaching 50,000 children and adults annually. Festival events feature hands-on activities, tours, tastings, and performances from more than 100 partner organizations. Lambert iGEM participated in the Atlanta Science Festival in order to increase the public’s knowledge of synthetic biology. Through collaboration with the Georgia State iGEM team, Lambert iGEM helped children create art with micropipettes and color dye. This simple experiment helped spark interests in science.
For more information, visit Atlanta Science Festival's website.

iGEM Team Collaboration
Nanjing-China
Lambert iGEM created a lab emoji in collaboration with Team Nanjing. The teams involved strived to increase accessibility of science to the community. It was an activity that allowed Lambert iGEM to consider the entertaining aspects of science. This collaboration allowed for a more relaxed, inviting lab environment and an overall better iGEM experience. Team Nanjing also used our app Color Q, testing and proving its functionality.

Westminster UK
Due to limited resources, the Lambert iGEM team understands the significance of conservation and frugality in the lab. In fact, frugal science remains a foundation of our project. In collaboration with Westminster UK iGEM, the team developed a protocol to recycle spin columns without an autoclave, promoting an easy method of increased conservation in the lab.

ECUST
Lambert iGEM sent a summary of this year’s project to ECUST. The word restriction encouraged the team to formulate a concise and clear description - a crucial factor to consider when writing an abstract. Additionally, by simplifying the project description, we made it more accessible to the general public.

US AFRL Carrol
Synthetic biology is often viewed by the public as dangerous engineering of bacteria to infect the population. While this is not true, the perception of the public can hinder synthetic biology’s advancement. To address this issue, Lambert iGEM posed with US AFRL Carrol’s characters Mike the Microbe and Chia the Chitinase, two lovable animations that appeal to the general public.
