Collaborations

UCL iGEM Bootcamp Mini Jamboree

In collaboration with the London Biohackspace and Birkbeck College, we hosted an intensive, gruelling bootcamp that enlightened the attendees about various biobrick assembly protocols, biohacking, automation, and softwares associated with synthetic biology. The bootcamp culminated in a fascinating mini Jamboree, which featured all our iGEM projects, wiki and modeling tutorials, and even a DIY Spectrophotometer made in 1 week!


London iGEM Meet-up

iGEM teams around London met up on 31st of July at Birkbeck and presented the current progress of their research projects to each other, followed by a poster session and time for socialising. The teams involved were: UCL, Birkbeck, London Biohackspace, Westminster and Kent.


2014 Aalto-Helsinki Team: Blue-Light-Response Element

In order to use our constructs as personalised treatment devices, we collaborated with the Aalto-Helsinki team to use the blue-light-response element they created in 2014. The idea is to have a handheld/mobile device that can emit blue light and induce expression of out constructs when needed.


2015 CGU Taiwan Team: Joint-team survey

We are collaborated in a global joint survey with a range of iGEM teams around the world to gauge their opinion on this year projects.

2015 Oxford Team: Kill switch design and short video assays to collect public's opinion on our project and synthetic biology

We are preparing a range of short videos in which we interview people from different backgrounds in order to get their opinion and suggestions for our project. We hope then to use all this information to improve our project by specifically tackling people needs

We are currently working with Oxford to design a kill switch suitable for both our projects
