"Dear iGEMers,

The team Paris Bettencourt is studying the motivations of students / advisors / instructors to participate in iGEM. It would be extremely helpful, if you could take 5 minutes to fill out this survey. Thank you!"

'We are happy to present you Morph Bioinformatics from London- an iGEM-start up focusing on IT Solutions for Molecular Biology and aiming to become THE bioinformatics hub. Their iOS app 'OpenLabs' comprises various cloning features and makes molecular biology lab work more efficient, convenient and easily distributable. Check out the free beta-Version and help them adjust it to your needs!"

You can also check them out on Facebook, Twitter (@MBioinformatics), and YouTube!

Team METU Turkey made a video describing why the team joined iGEM! You can check it out here.

"Hello there. We are Baskent Meds, Baskent University's iGEM team. We lived in our lab to create a monster Escherichiastein Coli that designed to murder Legionary Pneumophilia. Enjoy a short horror movie that's about our iGEM adventure!"

"This year Cornell iGEM is creating a novel fungal toolkit for higher order basidiomycetes using Ganoderma lucidum. The toolkit will include constructs with antibiotic resistance for selection, constitutive and inducible regulatory elements, fluorescence markers to detect expression levels, and constructs to test the potency of homologous recombination. In addition, Cornell iGEM aims to improve current mycelium-based biomaterials, such as those produced by Ecovative Design, by introducing targeted antifungal genes as well as carotenoid biosynthetic pathways."

Hang out with Team TecMonterrey for a day in their video! Says the team: "This is how iGEM Tec Monterrey deals with an average work day, preparing ourselves for the Regional Jamboree!"

"L-forms: a novel chassis for synthetic biology. Team Newcastle invites you to explore what's possible when bacteria lose their cell wall." Watch their video to find out more!

Team Baskent Meds says: "We walked around Ankara, went to our favourite places, talked people about iGEM and here is some of the people who support us. Lots of love to everyone!" See their video here!

Check out the video that Team METU Turkey made about their project, Bee Subtilis!

Team SydneyUni Australia says: "Strange Nature is an online platform for students and educators to explore synthetic biology. We showcase cool and informative videos, animations and resources, we host an opinion poll and a short quiz about common misconceptions, and most importantly, we are running a science-writing competition for high-school students. The theme is 'What problems will be caused or solved by synthetic biology?'"

Team Valencia Biocampus explains their project in this animated video!

Check out the video that Team York UK made about their project: " Improving Microbial Fuel Cell Technology"!

Team NTNU-Trondheim has updated their Matchmaker program for 2013! Says the team: "The iGEM Matchmaker [website] makes it possible for teams to share their strengths and what they would like help with, making it easy to get in touch with other teams."
