We are the first generation of iGMER's at the Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education (Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey), Estado de México Campus. We are 11 Mexican Biotechnology Engineering students, 3 Instructors and 1 advisor. Our team was founded on July 24, 2013. Since the beginning we have been researching information regarding Synthetic Biology and how it works. Together we agreed that working on a Synthetic Biology Project that pretends to create a new metabolic pathway able to degrade a cholesterol derivative, 7-ketocholesterol, would be an innovative project not only for iGEM competition, but also for investigation lines in our University. We are happy to be part of the 10th iGEM Collegiate anniversary competition. Don't lose track of us!
