Revision as of 20:11, 12 October 2014
Jamboré"Jamboré" is a "brazificated" word for for Jamboree, a neologism for the national meeting of brazillian iGEM teams, alluding the official Jamboree - but in a more confotable way to spell the word, at least for us! This is the second time the Jamboé was held in University of São Paulo. Like in 2013, we gathered the brazillian teams on a single place to talk about the synthetic biology projects, make suggestions, appreciate feedbacks and, of course, have fun together. We and the other teams have given continuity to the last year Jamboré initiative expecting to strengthen even more the bonds between the iGEM initiatives in Brazil, what is decisive for showing to the involved faculties and sponsors what we are doing and how it is important for the proper growth and development of real synthetic biology research on Brazil. Fortunately, this expectation was completely achieved. For the second time, the Manaus team was present on São Paulo for the meeting - despite the long distance of almost 2700 kilometers! We were also very glad to have the presence of the team from Pernanbuco, first time on iGEM but already doing an impressive job on cancer biodetection. The team from Minas Gerais and even Anita Sifuentes from iGEM HQ have participated virtually (thanks Carlos Alberto and Anita!), but the internet connection didn't helped much with the videoconference. Although the technical problems limited our meeting, we transmited (in portuguese) everything online, enabling a larger audience. Click on the below to see the videos on YouTube.
Meetings like Jamboré fortify a network of ideas, collaborations, exchange of protocols and improve on the resolution of lab problems. We hope that in future this kind o initiative may lead to a more strong iGEM initiative on Brazil, aiming to spread the approach on genetic engineering that Synthetic Biology propose on our future national biotechnology research and biotech entrepreneurship. |
