COLLABORATIONS
The greatest power is the collaborations.

As a team, one of our favourite parts in iGEM have been collaborations.
They reminded us that iGEM is not only a competition but a chance to share and let other teams be a part of your project, and that is wonderful.
Below is shown the different universities that have collaborated with us. By clicking in the index or in the images you can go directly to the explanation.
Beijing Institute of Technology
This year, we collaborated with BIT iGEM team in order to achieve more accurate quantitative experimental data for both. We provided BIT with SPHEROTM Rainbow Calibration Kit for standardization in flow cytometry experiments. As the Calibration Kit is quite expensive but essential to the quantitative requirements of FCM, this collaboration improved the resource utilization under limited experimental funding. And BIT assisted us measure the bacterial growth curve of S. marcescens involved in our project. With their professional plate reader equipment which can measure the OD and fluorescence of the cultures continuously, along with their exquisite experimental technology, we can have a deeper understanding of the physiological characteristics of our bacteria. Considering the growth curve is one of the most important parameters which are closely related to our experimental design and mathematic model, we cherish this collaboration a lot, and have achieved quite exciting and valuable data from it.
Northwest University
We want to know if this secretion system can't work due to problems in our laboratory materials, instruments, etc., so we switched to another laboratory to conduct a parallel test.
We contracted NWU-China, and they verified the secretion effect of HIyA in BL21.
Northwest University tried to use the “Cellular Automaton” model to simulate the diffusion of molecules, thus to determine the chemical reaction equilibrium constant. Our team helped them build an evolutionary model of Cellular Automaton.

China
This year, we have established a closer relationship with the OCU-CHINA team. They handed the comic series to us and we gave them a good feedback!
