Bronze Medal

1. Register for iGEM, have a great summer, and attend the Giant Jamboree.

We registered for iGEM, worked hard and learned a lot this summer (it was rainy season here, actually). Also, we are looking forward to attend the Giant Jamboree soon!

2. Competition Deliverables

We documented all our work in our Wikiand recorded our achievements in this judging form. Also, we are going to present our poster and presentation in the Giant Jamboree.

3. Attributions

We completed the Attributionspage in our wiki. There we describe how we managed to complete all the work and thank all the people who helped us in this journey.

4. Inspiration and description

We successfully completed the Inspiration and Descriptionpage in our Wiki, where we share what motivated us to propose an alternative treatment for C. difficile.

5. Characterization / Contribution

We characterized an existing Part of the Registry. The experimental data generated is documented in BBa_K2253000 ’s Main Page.

Silver Medal

1.Validated Part / Validated Contribution:

We designed, expressed in E.coli and validated a protein that lyses C. difficile. In the assays held, our protein actually inhibited C. difficile growth. This part was submitted to the Registry with the following number: BBa_K2978000.

2. Collaboration:

We managed to collaborate with other igem teams (UPNA, Tuebingen, TAS Taipei, Stonybrook, Düsseldorf, US AFRL Carroll HS, Strasbourg and UVA), as you can see here. One of our main collaborations was with the Tuebingen and TAS Taipei teams for the SDG challenge, where we gathered and analyzed how iGEM teams addressed the Sustainable Development Goals declared by the UN. Also, we provided the UPNA team with a water sample from Costa Rica, so that they could validate their project. We had plenty of time getting to know other teams and we are excited to meet them at the Jamboree.

3. Human Practices:

As our project is related with antibiotic resistance and synthetic biology we wanted to communicate those topics to Costa Rican citizens. In order to do so, we set three different targets: decision takers, patients and general public. We held several interviews with experts to collect information and we documented that in a handbook that we shared with our targeted publics. All our achievements of the human practices we did are recorded in our Human Practicespage.
