Collaboration

Warwick iGEM

We mini prepped and PCR’d part BBa_K314110 and sent it to the Warwick iGEM team after they had used up their own supply of the part from the iGEM kit plate. We were not using the part ourselves, so it was an ideal match.

iGEM Bordeaux

Team Bordeaux used synthetic biology as a means to produce curdlan for use in vinyards to protect grapevine against downy mildew. They wished to investigate whether using curdlan in vinyards would be toxic to bacteria that is found in the environment. As such, we ran toxicity assays using the curdlan which they mailed to us on laboratory strains of environmental bacteria Pseudomonas putida and Rhodobacter sphaeroides as a proxy to study curdlan's effects.

Our data and report can be found here. The findings are also hosted on Team Bordeaux's collaboration page.

National Chiau Tung University Formosa and National Taiwan University

Team member Lychee went to Taiwan to spend some time helping NCTU_Formosa in the lab by running a colonies PCR and gels, and by assisting with translation/improving the quality of English on their wiki.

He also visited iGEM NTU in their lab and gave them human practices advice based on some of own outreach ideas: school talks etcetera.

ITB Indonesia

We distributed and collected responses for their project questionnaire as part of their human practices.

Trinity College Dublin

They have helped our outreach and media reach a wider audience through the creation of iGEM Academy: a youtube channel intended as a central hub for past, present, and future iGEM teams to share their videos.

The youtube channel has a lot of intresting videos, check it out here.

UCL

They hosted us in London and filmed us interviewing the public on the shared issues surrounding our projects - since both of our teams initially planned to work with free-living engineered bacteria inside people. We had productive discussions of these aspects of our projects and this helped us refine our ideas going forward.
