Outside the Lab
Getting the word out
Opening the Lab to the public-
We invited groups of international summer exchange students to our department.
We took the opportunity to introduce them to Synthetic Biology and iGEM, shared our lab experience and organized small demonstration session.
The sessions sparked a lot of interesting questions, enthusiasm and potential future iGEMmers!
Cafe Synthetic
-
Cafe Synthetic is a monthly science meetup at the local Panther Arms pub, open to anyone interested in Synthetic Biology. We signed up to present our iGEM project and get some critical discussions going.
The event was attended by scientists from diverse fields and Salil's presentation captured everyone's attention. The fish n' chips were also very welcomed!

Friday Presentation
Departmental lunchtime talk
-
Still to do. We set up a lunchtime talk in our Department to present our work. It was a good practice presentation and a chance to meet and gain advice plant scientists working next to us.

Meeting and Collaborating with other iGEM teams
Oxford iGEM Conference-
We kicked off the summer by joining the Oxford iGEM conference organized by the Oxford iGEM team.
It was a great chance to meet other teams. We connected especially well with the Irish team working on Cystic Fibrosis and look forward to seeing them again at the Jamborees!
The buzz of the conference was energizing and revealed the collaborative philosophy of iGEM as opposed to individualistic competition.

Assisting the Virginia iGEM team
-
Having seen Virginia's call for collaboration, we took part their team public awareness project and got to know about their project on biological filters. https://2014.igem.org/Team:Virginia
Trip to Norwich
-
We got in touch with St Paul's 2013 iGEM team, who Will knew, and shared iGEM anecdotes and top tips. https://2013hs.igem.org/Team:St_Pauls_London
Through them we met the current St Paul 2014 iGEM team and worked towards collaborating with them.
