iGEM 2016 - Tec de Monterrey


Team

We started as a group of 12 enthusiastic biotechnology students full of life and happiness, who didn’t know each other but had one goal in common: to solve a world-wide problem with microscopic organisms. At first, we couldn't figure out how to approach a solution to all the issues we thought of, but with communication we found it in front of our noses: technology.

Our multidisciplinary team consists of students from Biotechnology Engineering, Computer Science, Physics Engineering and Animation, all studying at ITESM, Campus Monterrey. We all have different views on biotechnology, from food industries to computational biology, each talent helping the team achieve its purpose in developing this project.

This team has come a long way since January where we first met up, shared ideas and started developing what is now our project. A year has passed where we saw each other every day for hours on end, including Friday nights, Saturdays, and Sundays. Through many complications we faced, tragedy brought us together, and we couldn't be any more grateful.

We are very thankfull to all the people that made this possible, welcome to our family.



Team Members

Leaders: Carolina and Alejandra, the girls that made our path possible along this year. Their leadership helped each one of us continue through fun times, but most importantly through rough days.

Part designers: Jesus, Carolina, Raul, Carlos, Yili, and Suria were the minds behind the construction of the biobricks.

Mathematical Model: Javier and Javier are the guys that developed the mathematical model of our modules for us to understand better the bacteria’s metabolism.

Lab Work: Carolina, Alejandra, Yili, Jesus, Melissa G., Carlos, Raul, Carmen, Meli R., and Marcelo were the handy hands that made possible the results of this project.

Human Practice: Carolina, Alejandra, Carmen, Yili, Raul, Suria, Carlos, Melissa G.,and Marcelo approached different communities to transmit our project so people could see how science can be inside the little things of everyday life.

Wiki:Carlos F. was the person responsible of making the wiki. He made the code and part of the design. Special thanks to Roberto for helping us too!

Wiki Design: Jesus, Yili and Alejandra made a great effort in making part of the design of the wiki. Special thanks to Lucia and Lulu for helping us too!

Instructors

Thanks to our two instructors that were along our side in this year.

Dr. Guy Cardineau

Dr. José Manuel Aguilar

Advisors

Thanks to our advisors that spend some sleepless nights with us and helped us understand more about molecular biology. They were the ones who taught us everything about lab work.

Luis Mario Leal Garza

Miguel Ángel Ortiz

Special Thanks

The team wants to give special thanks to all the people and institutions that made possible the development of the project:

  • Luis Omar Peña Ortega, director of Escuela de Biotecnología y Ciencias de la Salud, Tecnológico de Monterrey.
  • Dr. Rodolfo Garcia, from Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, for giving us the strain of Chromobacterium violaceum.
  • Dra. Viridiana García Meza, from Univesidad Auntonoma de San Luis Potosi, for giving us the strain Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans.
  • Julio Alejandro Rivera Haro, for the analysis of gold and silver in e-waste.
  • Juan José Cortés Morales, for the analysis of copper, zinc and nickel in e-waste.
  • Ing. Carlos Lara Valenzuela, manager of Grupo Peñoles investigation center for information on the bioleaching industry in Monterrey.
  • Alejandro Flores, who brought us C. violaceum from Mexico City.
