Welcome
Our project
We engineered a synthetic microbial consortium. We are awesome.
Results
In nature microorganisms commonly live in symbiosis, be it in form of a protective biofilm or as composite organism[s] such as lichen (a symbiosis of algae/cyanobacteria and fungi). Members of this symbiotic community secrete chemicals that offer protection and nutrition or neutralize toxins.

Human Practices
How to reach the public? We developed a guide "How to succeed in Public Relations" for all future iGEM Teams.
