Summer 2014 School courses
Valencia UPV iGEM team introduced The Sexy Plant Project to students between 10 -15 years old, during this summer. Besides, we organised an activity for students to learn the pH scale using a natural indicator based on anthocyanins obtained from plants. Around one hundred students extrated anthocyanins from a red cabagge, and created a natural pH indicator.

See our Lipdub at IBMCP labs!
We have organized and participated in a Lipdub, . Our team wanted to involve the different groups that are currently working on the institute that is hosting us (IBMCP) in a different manner. We spend a great time with our colleagues and we promoted social relationships between us. As a result we did not only achieve an awesome video, but found a magnificent way to popularize science in society.
