Getting the Metals

Our team did a miraculous job during the eight months of the SynDrop project. To ease the process of finding relevant documentation we have provided an overview which shows that we have achieved the requirements to be awarded the medals and special prizes at the iGEM 2018 competition.

1	MEDAL	CRITERIA	FULFILLMENT
2	Bronze	Registration and Giant Jamboree Attendance	Team Vilnius-Lithuania (also known as Komanda X) is ready to attend the Giant Jamboree after having a great iGEM season.
3		Competition Deliverables	All of the stages of developing the SynDrop idea and presenting it to the general public are provided here, on our wiki page (https://2018.igem.org/Team:Vilnius-Lithuania/Main).
4			We have designed an informative poster in order to convey the idea of our project to the judges and other iGEM'ers.
5			The story of SynDrop was put into a 20 minute resumptive presentation, which will be held on Friday.
6			The Judging Form (https://igem.org/2018_Judging_Form?id=2622) was completed responsibly to convince judges we have done our best.
7		Attributions	People who helped us throughout our project in areas where we needed their competences and advice are presented in the Attributions page (https://2018.igem.org/Team:Vilnius-Lithuania/Attributions).
8		Characterization	The InterLab Study (https://2018.igem.org/Team:Vilnius-Lithuania/InterLab) succeeded in identifying and minimizing the sources of systematic variability in fluorescence measurements and the data was accepted by the Measurement Committee.
9	Silver	Validated Part	We have sent 48 BioBrick Parts and 25 of them are newly composed. They can be found here (http://parts.igem.org/cgi/dna_transfer/one_batch.cgi?batch_id=5321) and used by all in the iGEM community.
10		Collaboration	We had 6 bi-directional and uni-directional collaborations with iGEM teams from different countries! All collaborations with descriptions can be found on Contributions (https://2018.igem.org/Team:Vilnius-Lithuania/Collaborations) page.
11		Human Practices	While passing on our experience to pupils and celebrating DNA Day with the community, we presented our project as widely applicable cell-free system. The "DIY-science" workshop successfully encouraged people to try scientists' daily routine, as well as inspired us to educate them outside the laboratory.
12	Gold	Integrated Human Practices	Inspired by discussions with the stakeholders during the DNA Day celebration, we had organised the international life sciences BioHackathon (HYPERLINKAS) which helped spawn the base for our software tool LipoVision (https://2018.igem.org/Team:Vilnius-Lithuania/Software).
13		Improve a previous part	While using an existing BioBrick Part OmpA_full-His, we have created a new one (http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K2622047) by adding Mstx to it.
14		Model your project	We created several models that characterize and improve different parts of our project: membrane protein insertion, liposome synthesis through microfluidics, BamA transcription/translation in IVTT systems and efficiency of thermoswitches. All models can be found on our wiki page (Model).
15		Demonstrate your work	Numerous experiments were conducted to ascertain that our system is functionally active. We obtained indisputable results and demonstrated that MPs can successefully be inserted into the liposome membrane and therefore can perform their intended function. SynDrop both works and complies with all rules and regulations approved by the iGEM Safety Committee (https://2018.igem.org/Safety). All results can be found in our wiki page (https://2018.igem.org/Team:Vilnius-Lithuania/Demonstration).
