Team:Tec-Chihuahua/Collaborations
Collaborations Timeline
iGEM offers the opportunity to hang around with teams from all over the world, get to know their cultures, share experiences, and, above all, work shoulder to shoulder towards the development of synthetic biology. During our time at iGEM, we seized this opportunity. From discussing our projects to characterizing a promoter, iGEM Tec-Chihuahua joined forces with our fellow iGEMers to build a tighter community through collaborations.

May 20th
Team NYU Abu Dhabi
We introduced ourselves and NYU team explained to us about their science sketch collaboration with all iGEM teams, we were glad to join us to this playlist!
June 19th
Team UChile Biotec
In this reunion, we had the opportunity to discuss different topics; from sharing about our projects to talking about social situations that were happening in our regions. We shared with them one of our lab protocols and different contacts from our region related with the implications of their project. In August we joined the UChile Biotec magazine project where the said team compiled the iGEM experiences of Latin American teams.

Team NCKU Tainan
Our projects and their possible implications were front and center during this pleasant video chat.
July 9th
Team TecCEM
Latin American Meet - up was the big event in our region. We had the opportunity to get to know Ricardo Camilio Chávez, iGEM’s Latin American ambassador. We also met team members from Monterrey, Guadalajara, and our hosts, from Mexico State. We learned about several teams’ projects: TecMonterrey_GDL, Ecuador, Tec Monterrey, USP-EEL-Brazil, USP-Brazil, UChile_Biotec, and TecCEM. Thanks to the feedback from specialists attending this meet-up, we started validating different possible implications of the project like bioaccumulation of the antimicrobial peptides in the bee and immunogenicity of our molecules.
In August we were glad to join the “Labs Like You” collaboration, where Tec CEM compiled videos of teams of all around the world to create a music video about laboratory life in iGEM.July 14th
Team Dusseldorf
Dusseldorf team yearly organizes a project to promote synthetic biology using self-designed postcards from all around the world. We are glad to be part of this distinctive and quaint collaboration.
