<h1> Collaborations </h1>

<p> A huge part of the iGEM project is the collaboration between the teams participating in the project. Helping existing and future iGEM teams with measuring results or improvements in the lab is one of the key participants for the iGEM succes. Improving on work done by already existing or earlier teams is also something the iGEM project supports a lot.

The Biobrick System is one of the measures underlining the importance of collaboration in iGEM. The most important Biobricks done by each team is submitted to the iGEM headquarters for safekeeping and upformation. The next year these biobrick becomes a part of the standard kit, which is send out to every iGEM team in the world. This system supports that all teams can use something created by another team for their own project if they want to. This is a huge help for all teams participating in the iGEM project, because you don’t have to start from scratch each year.

While pursuing the goals for our project we collaborated with other iGEM teams and participated in both a Danish and a Nordic Meetup.

The Danish Meetup was hosted by the DTU iGEM Team. This meetup took place the 24<sup>th</sup> to the 26<sup>th</sup> of april, where a lot of the other danish teams participated. The core of this meetup was a biobrick workshop, which took place in the DTU laboratory. This workshop was meant as an introduction for how to build a biobrick. A lot of the team members doesn’t have much experience with wet lab before iGEM, so this was also a general “how to”-guide for wet lab.  But the meetup also consisted of lectures about ‘How to do - Wiki’ and some cosy social games and a dinner.

In the spirit of iGEM, we went to Lithuania from the 1<sup>st</sup> to the 3<sup>rd</sup> of June to help the Vilnius iGEM Team getting started on their project. Through the experience of former SDU-Denmark iGEM team participants, we were able to aid the Vilnius University with their very first iGEM team. We intoduced them to techniques for organizing the lab work, how to navigate and use parts registry, how to interpret the iGEM medal recuirements, wiki tips, and important iGEM deadlines.

The Nordic Jamboree was hosted by the Uppsala iGEM Team in collaboration with the Stockholm iGEM Team. This took place at University of Uppsala from the 24<sup>th</sup> to the 26<sup>th</sup> of July and a lot of the nordic iGEM teams participated in this event. The main event of this meetup was the Nordic iGEM Jamboree competition, which was held on the 25<sup>th</sup>. The competition was meant as a chance to practise for the Giant Jamboree in Boston. The winning team of the Nordic Jamboree would receive The Golden Pipette, which this year went to the Stockholm iGEM Team. Other than this the event consisted of workshops, social events and a dinner saturday evening with a following barcrawl.

As a part of the project we send some of the team members to Lithuania from the 1<sup>st</sup> to the 3<sup>rd</sup> of June to help the Vilnius iGEM Team getting started on their project. As a new team the Vilinius iGEM Team had very little experience with what iGEM is and “how to do” iGEM. The members of the team shared their experiences with iGEM with the Vilinius iGEM Team and held some lectures about iGEM in general. Other than that the visit consisted of social events, lectures from guesting professors and a trip to Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.

After the Nordic Jamboree we were contacted by the Uppsala iGEM Team. They wanted us to help them finding out how many other iGEM teams that is or has been using antibodies for the last couple of years. This happened to help us as well in the making of a business plan for our project. This was carried out and the result of this search was shared between both teams.

Collaborations

Figure 1: All the awesome people from the Nordic Jamboree. You guys rock!

A huge part of iGEM is collaboration and open source community. In the spirit of iGEM, we went to Lithuania from the 1st to the 3rd of June to help the Vilnius iGEM Team getting started on their project. Through the experience of former SDU-Denmark iGEM team participants, we were able to aid the Vilnius University with their very first iGEM team. We intoduced them to techniques for organizing the lab work, how to navigate and use parts registry, how to interpret the iGEM medal recuirements, wiki tips, and important iGEM deadlines.

Figure 2: The silver medal was earned by helping the 2015 iGEM Team from d'Aix Marseille Université by sharing their survey on chewing gum.

While pursuing the goals for our project we collaborated with other iGEM teams and participated in both a Danish and a Nordic Meetup. The Danish Meetup was hosted by the DTU iGEM Team. This meetup took place the 24th to the 26th of april, where all of the other danish teams participated. The core of this meetup was a biobrick workshop, which took place in the DTU laboratory. This workshop was meant as an introduction for how to build a biobrick. A lot of the team members do nott have much experience with wet lab before iGEM, so this was also a general “how to”-guide for wet lab. But the meetup also consisted of lectures about ‘How to do - Wiki’ and some cosy social games and a dinner.

The Nordic Jamboree was hosted by the Uppsala iGEM team in collaboration with the Stockholm iGEM Team. This took place at University of Uppsala from the 24th to the 26th of July and a lot of the nordic iGEM teams participated in this event. The main event of this meetup was the Nordic iGEM Jamboree competition, which was held on the 25th. The competition was meant as a chance to practise for the Giant Jamboree in Boston. The winning team of the Nordic Jamboree would receive The Golden Pipette. Other than this the event consisted of workshops, social events, and a dinner saturday evening with a following barcrawl.

After the Nordic Jamboree we were contacted by the Uppsala iGEM team. They needed help to find information on how many teams that had been using antibodies in their projects. This turned out to be a win-win situation, since we could use the data in our Business Plan). We also helped the 2015 iGEM team from d'Aix Marseille Université by spreading their survey about chewing gum. We earned a silver medal for our efforts.

If you want to learn more about Synthetic Biology you should visit iGEM's homepage, which contains loads on the subject. You can even visit other teams' wikis and take a look at what they accomplished. Or maybe join a team yourself?
