How iGEM UFSCAR-Brasil collaborated with iGEM Teams
Our Team collaborated with national and international Times project, besides being the mentor of two new Brazilian teams. We contribute online surveys of 4 teams and we think that these contacts should be encouraged. Follow along as we share and collaborate with different teams:
Help to Stockholm, Finland, iGEM_nankai and iGEM Korea_U_Seo Teams by completing their survey forms. We also cooperate in filling the iGEM Global Cooperation, a form developed by several times, including Brasil-USP Team. The highlight was Team of Stockholm, which dealt on the negative results presented in Wikis, a point discussed in our weekly meetings. Thank you contact the three teams in question and hope that the answers have helped their respective activities Human Practices.
Aid to Stockholm and IISER iGEM Teams in g-blocks design for the construction of the gene circuit your project. Our idea was to contribute to and instructions on how to design and provide the best results in their amplification experiments and construction of its gene circuits.
One of the great experiences lived by our team was the help we offer to future Brazilian teams (UNESP-Assis and Unifei-Itajubá), who knew the iGEM participation in Jamboré and 4Biotec events. To our excitement, interested in setting up new teams are inspired students in projects such as iGEM Team Brazil-SP, represented by members of our current staff. This shows the power the iGEM presents and its growth potential in Brazil. As well, as perform in-person contacts with students during the above events, we are also assisting the assembly of the teams via Skype. Below we list the main aspects that deal on competition and the challenges of creating a team in Brazil:
Set up a multidisciplinary team, organized and present members interested in working with energy for synthetic biology
Seek financial resources in many different ways, either by simply selling brigadiers as by contacting your local University. Organize the team's finances and make enrollment in the Giant Jamboree.
Make weekly meetings, gather people interested in synthetic biology, study together and think of innovative projects that can help your community.
Enjoy and learn how to work in teams.
Seek the support of his teachers and heads of laboratories, are the key to running a iGEM project.
Know and learn the techniques behind the lab protocols.
