We also had an extra-special keynote talk  by Anita Sifuentes, from iGEM headquarters! We were very happy that we could create a welcoming environment to share ideas, issues and our experiences so far in this year's competition.

Gender representation seems to be a timely topic. For instance, Scientific American wrote about Gender Diversity and Synthetic Biology, where they report a study performed by 2013' team Paris Bettencourt. Even more interest is to find a page dedicated to Women in Synthetic Biology in Pinterest, with links to blog posts and news. More recently, scientists around the globe have been showing real signs of disavowal to any gender discrimination present in science.
