Team NAIT 2015

Collaborations

Sharing and collaboration are core values of iGEM. "Two heads are better than one" is a saying that can even apply to a new, advancing science like synthetic biology. Team NAIT is proud to say that we have collaborated with multiple teams both locally and around the world.

This summer, we collaborated with Amoy University in China by providing an article on Synthetic Biology in Canada. The newsletter in which our article was published was distributed around the world via social media. Many different teams read and contributed to this newsletter and as a whole, the science of synthetic biology gained exposure to the general public.



In July, Team Aix-Marseille sent out a survey for iGEM teams to distribute locally on the streets. We are happy to have helped Team Aix-Maseille Université by collecting information on chewing gum, GMOs and patents on life in North America. We interviewed and surveyed over 30 people in our area thus earning ourselves a gold medal for contribution from our fellow iGEM team.
