Bronze

  • Register and attend:
    Our team has been part of the iGEM competition and had an amazing summer developing our Crafting Crocin project. 13 members of our team are registered to attend the Giant Jamboree in Boston and could not be more excited about it.
  • Deliverables:
    We have completed and submitted all 8 required deliverables on time.
  • Attribution:
    We have many people and institution we are thankful for this year. Special thank you belongs of course to our university that provided us with finances and space to do our project. But the many other we want to thank to you can find in our Attribution page.
  • Characterization/Contribution:
    This year our team decided to both participate in Interlab Measument Study . We also decided to characterize an existing biobrick from 2011 Slovenia team which has been an inspiration and base to our project. You can read more about the characterization in the Zeaxanthin page of our project.
Silver

  • Validated part:
    The base of our project was the introduction of three enzymes into E. Coli. We validated all three enzyme BioBricks by sequencing [BBa_K2423005 and BBa_K2423008].The BioBrick with CsADH (BBa_K2423007)was, in addition to sequencing, verified by SDS-PAGE and activity assay.
  • Collaboration:
    Our team takes pride in collaborating with other teams and getting insight from the iGEM community. This year our most notable collaboration was a panel discussion we organized with iGEM Stockholm where more than 100 people participated. But we also worked with iGEM Lund to help them with their first year, organized webinars, made postcard and more! You can read about our collaborations on our Collaborations page.
  • Human Practices:
    This year we decided to focus most of our Human Practice on ethics in science and having fun as a team. We started off doing a market analysis to see the potential market value. The Ethics package we constructed can be found on our Ethics page, here it can be seen how we put our package to practice and where we looked at different ethical aspects of our project ideas and decided accordingly. You can read about this on our Human Practice page.
Gold

  • Integrated Human Practices:
    As mentioned before, we developed something our team calls The Ethics Package. In this we went first to experts to discuss ethical issues of our project, then we talked to the iGEM community in our webinars and lastly we reached out to general public in our panel discussion and lectures. Out of all these parts and own our research we compiled Ethical guidelines for iGEM teams with a list of questions that every iGEM team should answer to ethically asses their project. You can read more about our Ethics Package in our that you can find at our Ethicspage.
  • Improve a previous Part or Project:
    This year we were working with several parts from previous iGEM projects. Most notably with Zeaxanthine strain from Slovenia 2011 [BBa_K323122]. We decided that the production was too unstable in such a large plasmid and adding more steps to it would be too risky. Therefore, we used lambda red recombeenering to add the parts onto chromosome. You can read more about this part of the project at the Zeaxanthine page. Another improvement to previous project is a BiorBrick
