Our group is formed by students and instructors from The National Laboratory for Biodiversity (LANGEBIO in spanish) and the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). The team is formed by undergraduate students in diverse disciplines such as mathematics, physics, biomedical sciences, biothecnology and biology. We believe these diversity is essential for the enrichment of our project.

The team is formed by undergraduate students in diverse disciplines such as mathematics, physics, biomedical sciences, biothecnology and biology. We believe these diversity is essential for the enrichment of our project. The instructors and advisors are also from different knowledge fields such as mathematics, biology, systems biology and computer science. The work method of the team was as a workshop and we held reunions three times a week in the first months and then we entered an intensive laboratory work period in an all day basis. The project was mainly coordinated and done by the students. Is only with team work that we were able accomplish what we have done in the project. As an original student initiative we have done the first fieldwork in molecular biology from our university, in order to collect species with unusual molecular mechanisms.

Month-icon.png About the project

The project was born at Facultad de Ciencias synthetic biologic group as a theoretical approach of morphogenesis. Some ideas were proposed and developed theoretically on previous igem competitions since 2006 (e.g. oscillators)

For this year students designed a device based on a gene synthetic network based on the lux and las quorum sensing genes and IPTG and ATC quemicals The team develop a modeling and simulation in silico which gave crucial dates about the experimental viability. With people of the Langebio IPN- Cinvestav Irapuato lab we was able to complete the theoretic design an tune up the experimental job.

The assembly of regulation network started at Facultad de Ciencias, UNAM. Later we moved to Langebio IPN-Cinvestav lab to work together.

To now the experimental advance has given us some ideas of how we must corroborate the Turing's proposal of morphogenesis from 1952

We can say that given the nature our team so multidisciplinary that include students, advisors from Facultad de Ciencias, IIMAS and CINVESTAV Irapuato the first synthetic biology Mexican project proposed since 2006 produced great results in the experimental and theoretical field.

On this date the proyect is 95% advance.
