Team:Northwestern/Collaborations
Fostering relationships within their synthetic biology community is a crucial component to the iGEM journey. By collaborating with other teams, we were able to aid our peers across the world while getting to know them a little better. Team VesiCure collaborated with iGEM teams by answering surveys, exchanging protocols, planning experiments and participating in an international effort to spread awareness and make synthetic biology more popular.
Oxford University collaboration
The University of Oxford iGEM team also spent the summer working with outer membrane vesicles and constructing fusion peptides. By Skyping with their team, we discussed different OMV purification protocols and exchanged ideas about mathematical modeling translocation pathways, protein size considerations for export and periplasmic targeting.
