Collaborations play a very important role in terms of the development of project.

It provides us a better chance to get to know other teams and to learn to cooperate. In scientific fields, cooperation and collaborations play a major role for growth and discovery.

<h1>Gold Medal and Integrated Human Practices</h1>
 
  
<p>This page will contain information for your Gold medal Human Practices work, which you can also use to nominate your team for the Best Integrated Human Practices page. To make things easier, we have combined the Gold medal page with the Best Integrated Human Practices page since we expect the work to overlap considerably. </p>
 
<p>iGEM teams are unique and leading the field because they "go beyond the lab" to imagine their projects in a social/environmental context, to better understand issues that might influence the design and use of their technologies.</p>
 
<p>Teams work with students and advisors from the humanities and social sciences to explore topics concerning ethical, legal, social, economic, safety or security issues related to their work. Consideration of these Human Practices is crucial for building safe and sustainable projects that serve the public interest. </p>

Collaborations

Collaborations play a very important role in terms of the development of project. Collaborations with other teams helps us to learn about better ways to handle a problem, to learn new ways of working, to perceive different ideologies and to develop the project in general. It provides us a better chance to get to know other teams and to learn to cooperate. In scientific fields, cooperation and collaborations play a major role for growth and discovery. We are highly encouraged to work with other teams since it increases our horizon of knowledge and we are happy that iGEM promotes the idea of sharing knowledge and scientific materials. The following are the teams whom we can proudly call the collaborators this year.

iGEM TU Delft

Their iGEM project is called CASE13A. Both our projects are similar in terms of the use of Cas13a and paper microfluidics. Our collaboration started with our meeting in Delft. We were excited to see that TU Delft were also working with Cas13a as their major protein. We both are trying to work on different ways of tackling the problem of the antibiotic resistance using Cas13a. Therefore we decided to collaborate since it gave us the opportunity to discuss the challenges and also to try out new stuffs together. We started a collaboration for our software since we both were working on optimizing the crRNA for the different targets. In our team, we designed a software that could give us the best design and structure of the crRNA for different targets. For this we created a database of different possible sequences using NUPACK and other platforms. The team Delft had a similar project where they predict the part of the target that can best serve as a crRNA. We provided them with a list of possible targets and best crRNAs structures for their software. Also, the team Delft sent us the Tardigrade proteins(TDPs) to experiment them with the Cas13a and to check the activity and stability of the Cas13a when used together with TDPs. We did some cleavage assay of the Cas13a along with the TDPs, to see if it can create some difference in the reactivity.

iGEM BOKU Vienna

Michael and Julian from the iGEM BOKU Vienna came to do some experiments in our lab on 4th and 5th of October. Their iGEM project is called D.I.V.E.R.T. (Directed in vivo evolution via reverse transcription) and they are trying out new strategies for in vivo evolution which shows potential advantages over classical in vitro methods.
