Collaborations
Language Project Collaborations
The collaboration involves sending the English script to the collaborator, who translate it into another language record the translated script and send us the audio file(s). We stitch together the audio clips and the presentation slides to make the video.
We have had 13 different iGEM teams collaborate with us, resulting in language project videos in 17 different languages for a total of 25 videos. Through these collaborations, we were able to interact and share with all these teams, and it formed a big part of our iGEM experience to talk with such a diverse group of people working for the same goal.

ChassiDex Collaborations
ChassiDex is a database of host organisms containing all the information needed to work with the organism listed.
The following two teams helped us out by by providing data on different chassis which was further curated and put up on our database.
- IISER Mohali, India
- We had a great time mentoring the Mohali team regarding their modelling which helped them in evolving their algorithm. We got to share our knowlegde and learn from them in the process.
- Vit Vellore
- We participated in a beach clean-up organised by VIT at Marina Beach, Chennai.
- Tec de Monterrey Campus Guadalajara
- We clicked a picture of us at a landmark in Chennai, with a placard and the distance of Chennai to Boston written on it.
- US AFRL CarrollHS
- Mike the Microbe came to our lab here at IIT Madras, Chennai and we got to click pictures with him.
