Others
The 2019 alumni of the UZurich iGEM team have founded the SynBio association after their first competition season. SynBio's goal is offering a platform to interested students in the field of synthetic biology. They association contributed greatly to our iGEM experience and we appreciate their efforts to support us.
A big Thank You to Dominic Tinner who, with his experience and knowledge, supported the production of our promotion and presentation video. He was always ready to help us with the creation, and also offered valuable inputs concerning the form and content of our clips. Next to expertise and software, he also supplied us with the needed hardware and helped us to set up the production.
The Central IT, Multimedia & E-Learning Services at the university helped us to produce our expert-interviews for the science communication. By providing us with a studio, filming and cutting the video, they contributed to our iGEM experience.
Due to the unforeseeable COVID consequences, we were unable to our iGEM project in the Pelkmanslab. Nonetheless, after having hosted last year’s team, they were eager to support us and encouraged us to pursue iGEM in another research facility. A warm thank you to them.
