All in iGEM Community
The submission of research or review and seeing it published is one of the most exciting and anxious aspects of research. The iGEM community’s Academia and Research network’s fourth workshop in the Academic publishing workshop series, “The in’s and out’s of paper submission and publication by Dr. Bilge San”, aims to guide students through this process and provide comprehensive information on what to expect before and after submission.
A picture is worth a thousand words. Data visualization enables us to effectively communicate complex data. Analytics must be clearly portrayed and easily comprehensible due to the massive amount of data that is becoming available. The iGEM community’s Academia and Research network’s third workshop in the Academic publishing workshop series, “Analysis and Visualisation of Gene Expression Data by Dr. Jacob Beal”, highlights the importance of effective Gene expression data analysis and visualization.
An interview with Moriyama Akihiro, the founder and leader of the first iGEM team from Gifu University in Japan.
Science is not always about research. Science involves investments and entrepreneurship to fuel the continuation and application of research and everything that is contained in it. Greta expressed both interests in research as well as the commercialization side which led her to a career in venture capital.
I wanted to do entrepreneurship, but I hadn't really seen it in the synthetic biology and biotech space before, iGEM was a really good way for me to get to do those things, and I think it also was nice for me that it wasn't life or death in case it failed. It was just a student competition.
Erikan Baluku is currently a master's student at the University of Cape Town in South Africa. Originally, he is from Uganda and has a background in medical technology which he studied as an undergraduate and that’s when he came to know about iGEM.
Lietuviškos iGEM komandos kiekvienais metais skina aukščiausius laurus tarptautiniame sintetinės biologijos konkurse. O kaip iGEM atsirado Lietuvoje? Apie komandos kūrimo sėkmes ir nesėkmes kalbamės su Dr. Ingrida Olendraite, pirmosios iGEM komnados Lietuvoje vadove.
Coming from an engineering background, Suhasini Iyer was introduced to the realm of synthetic biology through an email from her school, where she learnt about the iGEM Competition and chose to enroll.
Starting a new iGEM team is a difficult process. Dr. Ingrida Olendraitė shares the struggles and highlights of being the first team in your country. Doctor also comments on science communication from experts point of view
Held for the first time at the Paris Porte de Versailles Expo, the Grand Jamboree featured the synthetic biology innovations of 350+ teams from 40+ countries who demonstrated their ideas, initiatives, and innovations for humanity’s most pressing problems, including the climate crisis, food security, human health, foundational advances, biomanufacturing and more.
Bluepha has been born from iGEM and is now supoorting iGEMers throughout their careers. They share their story how they got here on this interview
In this episode of the iGEMers of the World Podcast series, I talk with Kerstin Petroll, an entrepreneur and postdoctoral researcher in synthetic biology at Macquarie University, Australia. The iGEM startup that Kersten works with – HydGene Renewables – has engineered designer microbes that can produce hydrogen and renewable energy.
From dead bodies to incorporating iGEM into teaching, publishing papers and struggles of a PI, Ioana Popescu shares everything in this candid interview.
Publishing a paper is no easy feat - especially if you`re in high school. We chat with Alisa Leong Weng I about how she overcame the struggles and advice for people following the same journey.
