Survey

Our team have made collaborations different collaborations for the project.

Collaboration with iGEM Toulouse

We met iGEM Toulouse Team during an “iGEM France” meeting. We decided to work together for different aspects because of the geographical proximity with the team and the possibility of doing a common mini research project. We first met in Montpellier in July where we were able to organize our collaboration and talk about different issues we had. They gave us advice about the general organization to have for an iGEM project, softwares that are helpful as their team has more experience than us. We also helped on wiki overview and shared during summer about our lab difficulties encountered. We also tried to do a common funding demand for the French administrative region “Occitanie” both cities are in. It didn’t work out for this time but it could be a good idea with the knowledge we have to try again next year with the new teams. We decided to work on a little science project that could combine both our project. The project aims. For this project we designed 2 experiments, both of them directly lined with our own projects.

The goal of the first one is to fix a LL-37 a peptide used in iGEM Montpellier project to Cerberus the protein synthesize by iGEM Toulouse. The goal is to prove the versatility of the Cerberus protein and to integrated in the “filter” project to prevent dissemination.

he goal of the second experiment is to prove the biological activity of scygonadine on the vaginal flora as a concept of this part of the project was to design an anti toxic shock tampon.

Collaboration iGEM Sorbonne Université :

After meeting them in Paris we decided to collaborate with Sorbonne University team. We decided to help them continue with a project the previous Sorbonne team had : share our passion for biology and our vision of science with high school students. We decided to create a practical class for 2nd year high school students. We based our work on the experiments Sorbonne 2017 team used for this project. Our intervention in the high school was separated in two sessions : in the first sessions we gave a little biology lecture and had a practical class ; in the second we analyzed the results of the experiments and presented iGEM and our projects. Two members of their team, Asmaa Foda and Saniya Kari, worked with us for the project. They were in charge of the orders necessary for the practical class. We were in charge for the presentations slides for the two sessions (presentation of the practical course, analysis of the results, presentation of iGEM and our projects).
