Technische Universität Darmstadt iGEM Team (TU_Darmstadt)
Thomas, Laurin and Fabian from 2015 Tu_Darmstadt iGEM Team came and spent a few days with us in Trento. They visited our lab, we had lunch together and we shared our summer results. They brought us a cowbell as a souvenir from the ETH iGEM Team, which is now hanging in our iGEM room, next to the poster of our brainstorming.
Meeting now with @iGEM_Darmstadt to share some useful information on Synthetic Biology #igem2015 #cooperation

They asked us to test their platform “LabSurfing”. It is a social network for igemers, which allows the iGEM community to keep in touch and to ask for an available free “couch” when travelling around the world. We tested their platform both as a team and as individual users. We went through the test cases, including the creation of the profile, the service to contact other users and to research contacts in the different places of interest. We finally provided our overall feedback on the software, sharing with the Darmstadt Team opinions and suggestions.
Thanks guys for the visit, it was a pleasure to help you to test your software and see you in Boston!
