Collaborations with other iGEM Teams

Being the first team at the University of Stuttgart we were confrontated with a lot of starting problems. But we were welcomed so friendly! Everone gave us good advice, shared their experiences with sponsors, iGEM itself or solving experimental problems. We met a few german teams to exchange information and to just have a good time with each other. All in all it was a very valuable experience to us. So – big thanks to all iGEM-Teams for the support and helpful hints. It made the start much more easier and we are happy to be part of that great iGEM-community now.

iGEM Team Heidelberg

The project of this year’s iGEM-team in Heidelberg is about accelerated evolution using phage-assisted continuous evolution (PACE). This is a very fast method to insert a desired mutation into bacterial cells. In their case, they used the method to evolve three mutagenesis plasmids developing different antibiotic resistances in E. coli cells. We were asked to perform a mutagenesis plasmid activity assay to analyze their function and mutagenesis levels. In return they supported us developing our safety part. Based on their suggestions we designed our light-induced killswitch.
All in all Team Heidelberg gave us continuous support and we are very thankful for that.

iGEM-Team Stuttgart meets iGEM Team Tübingen

The iGEM Team Tübingen invited us to their lovely town to spend a fabulous day together! We had a nice barbecue and after being filled up with great food the Tübinger Team invited us to discover one of the highlights of the city - the famous Stocherkahn (sorry - I have no translation for this!) on the Neckar river! We had lots of fun, laughter and a great time getting a lot of input, information and experienced advices for the iGEM competition! As the iGEM Team Tübingen is already an succesful expert in the complete iGEM concept since years - we newbies ;) - were lucky to get so many passionated and ambitious help! It's nice to see that iGEM is a competition where you meet so many great people that want to help each other out! Thank you Team Tübingen and we hopefully can give you back your hospitality soon!
