NEGEM Wellesley

Collaborations

Collaboration between iGEM teams is one of the most important aspect of the competition. Instead of competition where teams are struggling to out perform each other, teams are encouraged to work together for the betterment of synthetic biology as a whole. The Boston University team has taken this ideal to heart and has worked in several different ways to collaborate with other teams.

NEGEM

One of the first efforts of collaboration by the 2015 Boston University team was to host NEGEM (New England iGEM Meetup). At this event, all iGEM teams in the surrounding region were encouraged to attend and share their projects as well as give useful insight and suggestions to other teams. This also gave team members to meet members from other teams and form relationships for future collaboration. The event was a big success! Eight iGEM teams attended, shared, and bonded. Below are some of the pictures from the event.
