Team / Item	Collaboration
Queen’s University Canada	Screened for Cannabidiol-inducible promoters from our pre-existing E. coli promoter library (Queen’s project: anti-THC antibody-based biosensor). See our data here. We got 36 hits corresponding to potentially 36 different E. coli promoters that respond to cannabidiol. Filmed clips for their “The most questions asked questions about genetic engineering” video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlQOVsICrtQ&list=LLSKyXvEfTZZKviu_IJJ4xgw&index=5&t=0s&frags=pl%2Cwn 1) iGEM NCTU Formosa [National Chiao Tung University(Post-production)] 2) iGEM Queens_Canada [Queen’s University, Canada(Coordination, filming)] 3) UBC iGEM [University of British Columbia(filming)] 4) iGEM Calgary [University of Calgary(filming)] 5) iGEM Toronto [University of Toronto(filming)] 6) uOttawa iGEM [University of Ottawa(filming)] 7) Oxford iGEM [University of Oxford(filming)] Queen's Collaborations page.
University of New South Wales (UNSW)	Re-created their iGEM Business Scaffold template in a Canadian context. Proofread and modified formatting, added new sections (Operations, Legal Structure, Online Presence), and edited sections (Registration, Location). Applied our iGEM project into the final business scaffold to prove that it is a viable structure for startup companies. Download our Paralyte-STX startup scaffold here.

Surveys & Studies	Participated in iGEM TIES CRI-PARIS' study on the interactions between iGEM teams; required filling out scheduled surveys for them. Ovulaid survey for iGEM Copenhagen Food allergies survey for iGEM Strasbourg France DNA synthesis survey for SquidBio Cell lysis survey for University of Tartu iGEM (Estonia) Roadblocks to mammalian research survey for University of California, Davis iGEM
Personal Meet-Ups	Separately met with members from iGEM Tec-Chihuahua, University of Alberta iGEM, iGEM Waterloo, and iGEM Poitiers. Shared project ideas, discussed progress, gave constructive feedback on team structure, experimental protocols, and made new friendships.
