WPI-Worcester
| This year, the BU iGEM team collaborated with the WPI-Worcester iGEM team.
The collaboration became possible at the NEGEM meet up in June, where six New England iGEM teams presented their project ideas to the rest. During one of our small group discussions, a team member from WPI talked about how lucky we, the BU team were to get access to a flow cytometer for single cell fluorescence measurement. Right then, the two teams decided to collaborate. We would test some of there constructs on our Fortessa and they would view cells expressing our devices under their confocal microscope. They gave us the two copies of the same constructs, one in a Chloramphenicol resistant backbone and the other in an Ampicillin resistant backbone. The results our shown below -  |

Inter Lab Study Collaboration with Tufts iGEM and MIT iGEM teams
In August, researchers from the Tufts iGEM team contacted us and described that they had been having trouble transforming some parts, which were required for the Inter Lab Study , into cells. The parts that they needed were -
We located those parts, members from the Tufts team picked them up and successfully measured the required constructs for the study. During the 3rd NEGEM Meetup in October, MIT iGEM also expressed interest in taking part in the Inter Lab Study. We promptly streaked all required constructs on agar plates for them, which they could then use to make cultures and test on their Flow Cytometer. Our results for the study can be found on our Inter Lab Study page. |
