document.getElementById("tab1").innerHTML = '<h2>LAB-platform</h2><p>In the early summer a request from both team UIUC_Illinois and Groningen to receive the shuttle vector (<a href="http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1033206">BBa_K1033206</a> and <a href="http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1033207">BBa_K1033207</a>) created by last years Uppsala team got to our email. Instead of just providing the DNA-part we decided that we can do more. We wanted to help the iGEM community reach a Lactic Acid Bacteria chassi faster, and wanted to help both Groningen and Illinois to reach further. So we set up the LAB platform.<br><br>The LAB platform stands for the Lactic Acid Bacteria platform. It is a cloud folder on google drive that all three teams can use to share protocols and experience in a more inofficial manner. A place where we can learn from one another and help each other reach our goals. </p><h2>Swedish Collaboration</h2><p>Most Swedish iGEM teams have had difficulties to come back several years in a row. In fact Uppsala University is the only university that has competed in iGEM for more than one year in a row. We were therefore really ecstatic to find out that Linköping University is now joining iGEM for the second time in a row. This year also Gothenburg is joining us.<br><br>However together with the other Swedish teams we were worried that it would once again not last. So to make sure that the Swedish teams can thrive in iGEM Linköping organized a meet-up in Sweden to get to know each other and create a strong base for future collaborations. As an Swedish team with over 6 years of experience we hope to bring light and prosperity to both Linköping and Gothenburg so that they will be a stable team in iGEM. <br><br>Visit team Linköpings wiki <a href="https://2014.igem.org/Team:Linkoping_Sweden">here!</a><br>Visit team Gothenburgs wiki <a href="https://2014.igem.org/Team:Gothenburg">here!</a></p><h2>Nordic Collaboration</h2><p>Another regional collaboration that have a bit more experience is the Nordic collaboration between Swedish, Danish, Finnish and Norwegian teams. This year the collaboration took form in a facebook group. There was an meetup planned in Oslo in Norway but it was sadly cancelled due to lack of interest, which we in Uppsala are extra sad about since we looked forward to meeting them there.</p><h2>Tokyo Tech</h2><p>During the Jamboree last year we made great friends with team Tokyo Tech from Japan and were excited to continue a collaboration this year. One of our members this and previous years was on vacation in Japan and made sure to meet-up with the new Tokyo Tech team. After she got back we were all excited to hear more about team Tokyo Tech and we arranged a Skype call from our lab to their lab. We had a nice chat and discussed future collaborations, for example trading experience of quorum sensing system characterisation experiments.</p><h2>ULB-Brussels</h2><p>During the summer we have kept contact with Francois Seys from team ULB-Brussels. He told us that he was coming to read his master here in Uppsala and asked if we could perhaps collaborate. Francois was excited about lab work, so our first idea was to let him help with our lab work. However the safety guidelines for insurance in the lab together with the course administration made this impossible. As we talked more about our project Francois got the idea that he could present ULB-Brussels project at our event SynBio Hour. We thought this was a great idea. After our team presentation Francois presented ULB-Brussels project at our event, and therefore provided international flavour to our event.</p> ';
