This iGEM project reaches now an end, but the seed of its idea is still growing in our minds and hopefully in yours! We dream of further and similar projects led whenever we'll have the opportunity.<br />
We found recent articles written about researches that share one or more characteristics with what we had foreseen and we have our own ideas about what could be further investigated. Let's share those plans!<br />
<br />
The device we designed was thought as a proof of principle. It is highly modular and can hence be adapted in several ways for various applications.<br />
<br />
Some may think that our device is too unstable and could never cross the stomach. However, we thought about the possibility, often used in pharmacology, to use pH sensitive capsules that open at the end of the stomach. It would be possible to encapsulate an entire batch of Taxi.Coli bacteria inside such capsule, releasing the Taxi.Colis upon arrival in the intestine only.<br />
<br />
We chose to use E.coli as chassis organism for practical reasons, but for a medical or industrial implementation, others may be preferred.<br />
<br />
We had thought about two dream-carriers our device could be adapted for. The first would be a bacterium able to use chemotaxis to localize a given target (e.g. tumors or pathgenic microorganisms) with a safety mechanism implemented (inducible switch for apoptosis, limited number of division possible, dependence on an artificial amino acid...), preventing from any harm to the human body. This would allow targeted drug delivery at least in external body parts such as the digestive track and the lungs. We are now certain that this vision of the project is realistic, since [http://www.nature.com/news/engineered-bacterium-hunts-down-pathogens-1.13727 such bacteria have been recently used to hunt pathogens], only without nanoparticles, but through direct attack. Being able to conjugate our highly adaptable device with bacteria that show such a performance would be optimal for efficient targeted drug delivery and the opportunity to modify the sensed environment and change the delivered drug easily is a great way to reduce costs and allow wider distribution of such a device.<br />
The second carriers we thought about for the future of our device are immune cells. Indeed, conjugating the nanoparticles to our own sentinels would allow to release drug almost anywhere in the body! They would hunt pathogens as usual, but have more weapons to fight them once localized. However, this solution is more complicated to implement, since working with human cells is much trickier than engineering bacteria and immune compatibility must be taken into account.<br />

An application of our project for the future would be treating the colon cancer by applying our taxi-coli device in a suppository form.<br />
Our project at the moment doesn’t contain any feature to address safety risks as we are working on a proof of principle project. However we suggest a manner to address safety risks assuming our project could become widely used as a commercial medical application in the future.<br />
<br />
As a design feature to prevent any arm our project could cause in dissemination, we imagined engineering our chassis with an artificial amino acid; thus preventing it from surviving out of an environment that is not containing the artificial amino acid. <br />
In case our project becomes a medical application: the patient would ingest pills containing an artificial amino acid during the whole treatment allowing the engineered E.coli to proliferate in the colon and treat the tumor. When the treatment ends the patient stops ingesting the artificial amino acid thus not allowing the engineered E.Coli to survive in the colon anymore. We can also think of a way of treating, inactivating or burning the biological waste. The better way would still be to confine the patient during the whole treatment in the hospital so the waist could be directly treated by the hospital itself.<br />
<br />
Considering all those possible openings, we think that our dream could become true! The Taxi.Coli device, after optimisation, could be reasonably adapted for large scale production, becoming a cheaper but nonetheless very efficient and modular device. Should it be for personalised medicine, preventive device (bacteria as sentinels in our intestinal tract) or massive cancer therapy, a wide horizon is open in front of our taxi's army...<br />

We are proud to participate in IGEM 2013 and are excited to present<br><br />
'''Taxi.Coli - smart drug delivery'''<br />
<br><br><br />
The basic idea is simple: <br><br />
We will use E.coli as a "Taxi", add streptavidin to the surface as "Seats" and nanoparticles incorporating drugs as the "Passengers". The "Taxi" will recognize the right "Adress" with a pH sensor and the "Passengers" gets released by an enzyme.<br />
==Achievements:==<br />
- We can produce biotynilated nanoparticles<br><br />
- We can engineer E.coli expressing streptavidin (maybe even on the surface) to bind these nanoparticles<br><br />
- We can engineer E.coli to sense different levels of pH<br><br />

Our team is this year exceptionally composed of 10 young women. We are all very motivated and proud to participate in the 2013 iGEM competition. <br />
We all were Bachelor's students at the beginning of the project. Still, we participated in all and every aspect of the project from recruiting sponsors to the experiments and the wiki, except for what we mentioned in the acknowledgments section. <br />
Here are our personal profiles, come and meet our team! Here our '''[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/6/60/Team-EPF-Lausanne_sponso.pdf sponsoring file]'''<br />

Our team is this year exceptionally composed of 10 young women. We are all very motivated and proud to participate in the 2013 iGEM competition. <br />
We all were Bachelor's students at the beginning of the project. Still, we participated in all and every aspect of the project from recruiting sponsors to the experiments and the wiki, except for what we mentioned in the acknowledgments section. <br />
Here are our personal profiles, come and meet our team! Here our sponsoring file<br />

For the first time since 2008 EPFLausanne team is composed of '''10 young women'''. Therefore we decided to use our particularity to our advantage and organize the '''first event dedicated to women and engineering at EPFL'''. Indeed, using the fact that we are exclusively girls in the team, we wanted to '''promote engineering, synthetic biology and the iGEM competition among high school girls'''. The team is currently working with the Equal Opportunities Office based on our campus in order to organize this special event on '''October 7th 2014'''. We really are hoping this annual event will become a '''tradition''' in our University each year. Thanks to our faculty, we are able to use a spacious laboratory where we plan to show the girls how to '''use our kit''' and show them some hands-on work! This will be a great experience to practice in a real lab and make them realize how our summer '''teamwork''' for iGEM looked like. After having fun with the kit, a meal will be offered by the Equal Opportunities Office. During the afternoon, we are inviting a few teachers of the faculty for a '''talk''' about synthetic biology and the iGEM competition. These meetings will be followed by very simple but useful discussions with the girls about how they see their '''future as students'''. It will be followed by a '''small group project''' where the best synthetic project idea will be picked for a winner. Indeed, after what they saw and heard all day, this should be the perfect moment to let their ideas flow and make them look forward participating in the iGEM competition. <br />

What is '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/storage/documents/BioBuilder_Brochure2011.pdf Biobuilder]'''?<br />
''Biobuilder is an open-access website offering informative animations and activities for anyone who wants to teach or learn about synthetic biology''<br />
<br />
Through our kit the team wanted to express its sympathy to '''[http://www.biobuilder.org BioBuilder]''', because we all think it's an awesome site and because we just love it! Not only it is educative and useful tool but it also challenging and fun. Because we totally share this vision of synthetic biology, we wanted to collaborate with BioBuilder in order to make Swiss high school students aware of this awesome site. Indeed as a part of our "human practice" for the iGEM competition, we wanted to make this site a reference for high school students in Switzerland. Our vision is to suggest a kit assembling some basic synthetic biology fundamentals easy to perform in high schools and add some BioBuilder "material" to the kit for instance: links to their site, some '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/activities/ comics]''' and links to their '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/animations/ animations]'''. So we contacted Professor Nathalie H.Kuldell president of '''[http://biobuildereducationalfoundation.org Biobuilder Educational Foundation]''', in order to share with us some of Biobuilder’s awesome content. <br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''Education that is challenging and fun is really at the heart of what we do- and it sounds like what you do too.''' <br />

All the team agrees that the iGEM competition can be resumed to teamwork, learning, friendship, proper lab practices, and most of all fun. Our goal is to emphasize what we think to be the four main cornerstones of the iGEM competition in one single kit containing four sections: “Education”, “safety”, “sharing” and “fun”. We had for ambitious objective to include these four aspects in one and single human practice project to have an impact on the student community of Switzerland. Of course we agree that shipping our kits wasn’t really easy foe safety reasons so we decided to create our kit, so it could be used in several events organized at our university. For instance highschool students visit day, our science bus that promotes science within our younger students and of course the women&Engineering day, the team organized. <br />
<br />
Our team has translated all the material of our '''kit in the 3 national languages''': [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4a/Team-EPF-Lausanne_68.pdf German], [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/2/27/Team-EPF-Lausanne_6.pdf French] and [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4d/Team-EPF-Lausanne_7.pdf Italian] and in [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf English]. The kit is entirely designed by us and contains awesome educational material kindly provided by Biobuilder. <br />

<br />
-'''[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf An introduction to synthetic biology]''' written by the team and a '''glossary''' explaining the fundamental elements of synthetic biology; In order to introduce the students to the subject and to the iGEM competition. This document reflects the vision and the summer experience of the team regarding the iGEM competition. It will definitely motivate the students to participate to such an experience!<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
-Our team not only aims to introduce the students to synthetic biology but also wants to help the teachers by providing them educational protocols easy to perform, explaining clearly and in a fun way the fundaments of Synthetic biology. Therefore we provide a protocol divided in two parts '''a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/7/72/Team-EPF-Lausanne_3.pdf teacher protocol]” and a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/5/53/Team-EPF-Lausanne_2.pdf Student” protocol]'''. The teacher protocol is filled up with '''tips, [http://www.youtube.com/user/BioBuilderTV youtube video links]''' to show how to perform some steps of the protocol, and references to material supplies. The Student protocol is meant to guide the student with '''clear pictures of the protocol's steps''' taken by the team and small tips to help them through the experiment. We provide two protocols one courtesy of [http://openwetware.org/images/2/26/BioBuilding_Students_Lab4.pdf Biobuilder] and one [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/e/e0/Transformation_fr.pdf done by ourselves] meant to transform competent E.Coli with '''[http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1111005 our team’s plasmid]'''.

We are proud to participate in IGEM 2013 and are excited to present<br><br />
'''Taxi.Coli - smart drug delivery'''<br />
<br><br><br />
The basic idea is quite simple: <br><br />
We will use E.coli as a "Taxi", add streptavidin to the surface as "Seats" and nanoparticles incorporating drugs as the "Passengers". The "Taxi" will recognize the right "Adress" with a pH sensor and the "Passengers" gets out.<br />
==Achievements:==<br />
- we can produce biotynilated nanoparticles<br><br />
- we can engineer E.coli expressing streptavidin (maybe even on the surface) to bind these nanoparticles<br><br />
- we can engineer E.coli to sense different levels of pH<br><br />
<br />

We are proud to participate in IGEM 2013 and are excited to present<br><br />
'''Taxi.Coli - smart drug delivery'''<br />
<br><br><br />
The basic idea is quite simple: <br><br />
We will use E.coli as a "Taxi", add streptavidin to the surface as "Seats" and nanoparticles incorporating drugs as the "Passengers". The "Taxi" will recognize the right "Adress" with a pH sensor and the "Passengers" gets out.<br />
==Achievements:==<br />
- we can produce biotynilated nanoparticles<br><br />
- we can engineer E.coli expressing streptavidin (maybe even on the surface) to bind these nanoparticles<br><br />
- we can engineer E.coli to sense different levels of pH<br><br />

<br />
We are proud to participate in IGEM 2013 and are excited to present<br><br />
'''Taxi.Coli - smart drug delivery'''<br />
<br><br><br />
The basic idea is quite simple: <br><br />
We will use E.coli as a "Taxi", add streptavidin to the surface as "Seats" and nanoparticles incorporating drugs as the "Passengers". The "Taxi" will recognize the right "Adress" with a pH sensor and the "Passengers" gets out.<br />
==Achievements:==<br />
- we can produce biotynilated nanoparticles<br><br />
- we can engineer E.coli expressing streptavidin (maybe even on the surface) to bind these nanoparticles<br><br />
- we can engineer E.coli to sense different levels of pH<br><br />
<br />

Our team is this year exceptionally composed of 10 young women. We are all very motivated and proud to participate in the iGEM competition 2013; <br />
Considering we all were Bachelor's students at the beginning of the project, we participated in all and every aspect of the project from recruiting sponsors to the experiments and the wiki, except for what we mentioned in the section acknowledgments. <br />
Here are our personal profiles, come to meet our team!<br />

Through our kit the team wanted to express its sympathy to '''[http://www.biobuilder.org BioBuilder]''', because we all think it's an awesome site and because we just love it! Not only it is educative and useful tool but it also challenging and fun. Because we totally share this vision of synthetic biology, we wanted to collaborate with BioBuilder in order to make Swiss high school students aware of this awesome site. Indeed as a part of our "human practice" for the iGEM competition, we wanted to make this site a reference for high school students in Switzerland. Our vision is to suggest a kit assembling some basic synthetic biology fundamentals easy to perform in high schools and add some BioBuilder "material" to the kit for instance: links to their site, some '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/activities/ comics]''' and links to their '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/animations/ animations]'''. So we contacted Professor Nathalie H.Kuldell president of '''[http://biobuildereducationalfoundation.org Biobuilder Educational Foundation]''', in order to share with us some of Biobuilder’s awesome content. <br />

All the team agrees that the iGEM competition can be resumed to teamwork, learning, friendship, proper lab practices, and most of all fun. Our goal is to emphasize what we think to be the four main cornerstones of the iGEM competition in one single kit containing four sections: “Education”, “safety”, “sharing” and “fun”. We had for ambitious objective to include these four aspects in one and single human practice project to have an impact on the student community of Switzerland. Of course we agree that shipping our kits wasn’t really easy foe safety reasons so we decided to create our kit, so it could be used in several events organized at our university. For instance highschool students visit day, our science bus that promotes science within our younger students and of course the women&Engineering day, the team organized. <br />
<br />
Our team has translated all the material of our '''kit in the 3 national languages''': [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4a/Team-EPF-Lausanne_68.pdf German], [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/2/27/Team-EPF-Lausanne_6.pdf French] and [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4d/Team-EPF-Lausanne_7.pdf Italian] and in [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf English].

-'''[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf An introduction to synthetic biology]''' written by the team and a '''glossary''' explaining the fundamental elements of synthetic biology; In order to introduce the students to the subject and to the iGEM competition. This document reflects the vision and the summer experience of the team regarding the iGEM competition. It will definitely motivate the students to participate to such an experience!<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
-Our team not only aims to introduce the students to synthetic biology but also wants to help the teachers by providing them educational protocols easy to perform, explaining clearly and in a fun way the fundaments of Synthetic biology. Therefore we provide a protocol divided in two parts '''a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/7/72/Team-EPF-Lausanne_3.pdf teacher protocol]” and a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/5/53/Team-EPF-Lausanne_2.pdf Student” protocol]'''. The teacher protocol is filled up with '''tips, [http://www.youtube.com/user/BioBuilderTV youtube video links]''' to show how to perform some steps of the protocol, and references to material supplies. The Student protocol is meant to guide the student with '''clear pictures of the protocol's steps''' taken by the team and small tips to help them through the experiment. We provide two protocols one courtesy of [http://openwetware.org/images/2/26/BioBuilding_Students_Lab4.pdf Biobuilder] and one [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/e/e0/Transformation_fr.pdf done by ourselves] meant to transform competent E.Coli with '''[http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1111005 our team’s plasmid]'''.

Through our kit the team wanted to express its sympathy to '''[http://www.biobuilder.org BioBuilder]''', because we all think it's an awesome site and because we just love it! Not only it is educative and useful tool but it also challenging and fun. Because we totally share this vision of synthetic biology, we wanted to collaborate with BioBuilder in order to make Swiss high school students aware of this awesome site. Indeed as a part of our "human practice" for the iGEM competition, we wanted to make this site a reference for high school students in Switzerland. Our vision is to suggest a kit assembling some basic synthetic biology fundamentals easy to perform in high schools and add some BioBuilder "material" to the kit for instance: links to their site, some '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/activities/ comics]''' and links to their '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/animations/ animations]'''. So we contacted Professor Nathalie H.Kuldell president of '''[http://biobuildereducationalfoundation.org Biobuilder Educational Foundation]''', in order to share with us some of Biobuilder’s awesome content. <br />

All the team agrees that the iGEM competition can be resumed to teamwork, learning, friendship, proper lab practices, and most of all fun. Our goal is to emphasize what we think to be the four main cornerstones of the iGEM competition in one single kit containing four sections: “Education”, “safety”, “sharing” and “fun”. We had for ambitious objective to include these four aspects in one and single human practice project to have an impact on the student community of Switzerland. Of course we agree that shipping our kits wasn’t really easy foe safety reasons so we decided to create our kit, so it could be used in several events organized at our university. For instance highschool students visit day, our science bus that promotes science within our younger students and of course the women&Engineering day, the team organized. <br />
<br />
<br />
Our team has translated all the material of our '''kit in the 3 national languages''': [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4a/Team-EPF-Lausanne_68.pdf German], [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/2/27/Team-EPF-Lausanne_6.pdf French] and [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4d/Team-EPF-Lausanne_7.pdf Italian] and in [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf English].

Through our kit the team wanted to express its sympathy to '''[http://www.biobuilder.org BioBuilder]''', because we all think it's an awesome site and because we just love it! Not only it is educative and useful tool but it also challenging and fun. Because we totally share this vision of synthetic biology, we wanted to collaborate with BioBuilder in order to make Swiss high school students aware of this awesome site. Indeed as a part of our "human practice" for the iGEM competition, we wanted to make this site a reference for high school students in Switzerland. Our vision is to suggest a kit assembling some basic synthetic biology fundamentals easy to perform in high schools and add some BioBuilder "material" to the kit for instance: links to their site, some '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/activities/ comics]''' and links to their '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/animations/ animations]'''. So we contacted Professor Nathalie H.Kuldell president of '''[http://biobuildereducationalfoundation.org Biobuilder Educational Foundation]''', in order to share with us some of Biobuilder’s awesome content. <br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''Education that is challenging and fun is really at the heart of what we do- and it sounds like what you do too.''' <br />

All the team agrees that the iGEM competition can be resumed to teamwork, learning, friendship, proper lab practices, and most of all fun. Our goal is to emphasize what we think to be the four main cornerstones of the iGEM competition in one single kit containing four sections: “Education”, “safety”, “sharing” and “fun”. We had for ambitious objective to include these four aspects in one and single human practice project to have an impact on the student community of Switzerland. Of course we agree that shipping our kits wasn’t really easy foe safety reasons so we decided to create our kit, so it could be used in several events organized at our university. For instance highschool students visit day, our science bus that promotes science within our younger students and of course the women&Engineering day, the team organized. <br />
<br />
<br />
Our team has translated all the material of our '''kit in the 3 national languages''': [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4a/Team-EPF-Lausanne_68.pdf German], [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/2/27/Team-EPF-Lausanne_6.pdf French] and [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4d/Team-EPF-Lausanne_7.pdf Italian] and in [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf English].

<br />
'''The kit contains:''' <br />
<br />
-'''[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf An introduction to synthetic biology]''' written by the team and a '''glossary''' explaining the fundamental elements of synthetic biology; In order to introduce the students to the subject and to the iGEM competition. This document reflects the vision and the summer experience of the team regarding the iGEM competition. It will definitely motivate the students to participate to such an experience!<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
-Our team not only aims to introduce the students to synthetic biology but also wants to help the teachers by providing them educational protocols easy to perform, explaining clearly and in a fun way the fundaments of Synthetic biology. Therefore we provide a protocol divided in two parts '''a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/7/72/Team-EPF-Lausanne_3.pdf teacher protocol]” and a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/5/53/Team-EPF-Lausanne_2.pdf Student” protocol]'''. The teacher protocol is filled up with '''tips, [http://www.youtube.com/user/BioBuilderTV youtube video links]''' to show how to perform some steps of the protocol, and references to material supplies. The Student protocol is meant to guide the student with '''clear pictures of the protocol's steps''' taken by the team and small tips to help them through the experiment. We provide two protocols one courtesy of [http://openwetware.org/images/2/26/BioBuilding_Students_Lab4.pdf Biobuilder] and one [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/e/e0/Transformation_fr.pdf done by ourselves] meant to transform competent E.Coli with '''[http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1111005 our team’s plasmid]'''.

'''Overview:'''<br />
<br />
The human practice section of our project is a big challenge for our team. Indeed our idea is to reach out for young adults and high school students since they are the next iGEMers generation. Our aim is to introduce synthetic biology and the iGEM community to the high school students of Switzerland. Switzerland is very active in the Life Sciences field and biology is very popular within our high school students. However we were quite surprised to hear that most of them weren’t aware of iGEM’s competition. <br />
Therefore we decided that our human practice project would be based on raising the awareness of the high school students as much as we could. Our feeling is that there is a lack of educational material promoting synthetic biology in a fun and pedagogical way in Switzerland. So our team imagined two ways of interacting with the Swiss high schools to share with us the amazing experience that is the iGEM competition.<br />

<br />

We also provide a Biobuilder protocol: [http://openwetware.org/wiki/BioBuilding:_Synthetic_Biology_for_Teachers:_Lab_4 What a colorful world] to continue the good work and learn more about Biobuilder.”<br />
<br><br />
-'''Help the teachers''' by providing them all the material and teaching material they’ll need to teach properly. For instance: a special teacher’s version of the protocol providing tips and links to useful references.<br />
<br><br />
-Make the students '''participate and share their experience''' and thoughts with the synthetic biology community providing them links to forums and sites like BioBuilder and iGEM; so they can develop their knowledge further and share their love with more synthetic biology fans<br />
<br><br />
-'''[http://www.biobuilder.org/storage/mp4/bsl.mp4 Introduce them to the biosafety]''' and make them conscious about others and the environment using funny videos and comics courtesy of biobuilder.<br />
<br><br />

<br><br />
-On the other hand, since our team this year is exceptionally composed of ten young women we decided to take advantage of our particularity and organize a '''Woman&Engineer day the 7th of October''' in our University. All high school Swiss female students from the French region of Switzerland were invited to participate to our special day in EPFL. The Woman&Engineer’s day is meant to promote carriers in bioengineering for woman and encourage them to work in the field. A big part of this day was dedicated to test our kit, visit our labs and talk about iGEM competition, synthetic biology and the Biobuilder foundation between girls. We even organized a small contest within teams of girls for the best synthetic biology project idea! The interaction with the students is going to be awesome! We are so looking forward!<br />
<br />
After a summer of laughs, intense work, and amazing knowledge acquisition; working days and nights as a team, learning of our mistakes: We all agreed one could not find better iGEM ambassadors than us! Therefore our duty was to share this amazing experience with the ones that will be the next iGEMers!<br />

We even organized a small contest within teams of girls for the best synthetic biology project idea! The interaction with the students is going to be awesome! We are so looking forward!<br />
<br />
After a summer of laughs, intense work, and amazing knowledge acquisition; working days and nights as a team, learning of our mistakes: We all agreed one could not find better iGEM ambassadors than us! Therefore our duty was to share this amazing experience with the ones that will be the next iGEMers!<br />

'''Overview:'''<br />
<br />
The human practice section of our project is a big challenge for our team. Indeed our idea is to reach out for young adults and high school students since they are the next iGEMers generation. Our aim is to introduce synthetic biology and the iGEM community to the high school students of Switzerland. Switzerland is very active in the Life Sciences field and biology is very popular within our high school students. However we were quite surprised to hear that most of them weren’t aware of iGEM’s competition. <br />
Therefore we decided that our human practice project would be based on raising the awareness of the high school students as much as we could. Our feeling is that there is a lack of educational material promoting synthetic biology in a fun and pedagogical way in Switzerland. So our team imagined two ways of interacting with the Swiss high schools to share with us the amazing experience that is the iGEM competition.<br />

-'''An educational kit with the help of [http://www.biobuilder.org Biobuilder]''' containing four different sections: ''Education, safety, fun and sharing'' in order to introduce the students to what we think are the four main cornerstones of the iGEM community. The kit has been '''translated in four languages''': German, English, [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/2/27/Team-EPF-Lausanne_6.pdf French] and [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4d/Team-EPF-Lausanne_7.pdf Italian]. The team had some precise objectives we wanted to fulfill:<br />
<br />
-'''Introduce the Swiss high schools to synthetic biology and make them love it!'''<br />
The team provides a [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/e/e0/Transformation_fr.pdf protocol] that uses [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1111005 our team’s plasmid] to transform competent E.coli and make them glow. We also provide a Biobuilder protocol: [http://openwetware.org/wiki/BioBuilding:_Synthetic_Biology_for_Teachers:_Lab_4 What a colorful world] to continue the good work and learn more about Biobuilder.”<br />
<br><br />
-'''Help the teachers''' by providing them all the material and teaching material they’ll need to teach properly. For instance: a special teacher’s version of the protocol providing tips and links to useful references.<br />
<br><br />
-Make the students '''participate and share their experience''' and thoughts with the synthetic biology community providing them links to forums and sites like BioBuilder and iGEM; so they can develop their knowledge further and share their love with more synthetic biology fans<br />
<br><br />
-'''Introduce them to the biosafety''' and make them conscious about others and the environment using funny videos and comics courtesy of biobuilder.<br />
<br><br />
-Make them have '''fun while learning''' providing them with comics, stickers, video links and forums.<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
[[Image:EPF-Lausanne-graph.png|thumb|center|500px|Figure1: Our kit concept]] <br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
-On the other hand, since our team this year is exceptionally composed of ten young women we decided to take advantage of our particularity and organize a '''Woman&Engineer day the 7th of October''' in our University. All high school Swiss female students from the French region of Switzerland were invited to participate to our special day in EPFL. The Woman&Engineer’s day is meant to promote carriers in bioengineering for woman and encourage them to work in the field.

Through our kit the team wanted to express its sympathy to '''[http://www.biobuilder.org BioBuilder]''', because we all think it's an awesome site and because we just love it! Not only it is educative and useful tool but it also challenging and fun. Because we totally share this vision of synthetic biology, we wanted to collaborate with BioBuilder in order to make Swiss high school students aware of this awesome site. Indeed as a part of our "human practice" for the iGEM competition, we wanted to make this site a reference for high school students in Switzerland. Our vision is to suggest a kit assembling some basic synthetic biology fundamentals easy to perform in high schools and add some BioBuilder "material" to the kit for instance: links to their site, some '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/activities/ comics]''' and links to their '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/animations/ animations]'''. So we contacted Professor Nathalie H.Kuldell president of '''[http://biobuildereducationalfoundation.org Biobuilder Educational Foundation]''', in order to share with us some of Biobuilder’s awesome content. <br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''Education that is challenging and fun is really at the heart of what we do- and it sounds like what you do too.''' <br />
<br><br />
''Natalie Kuldell: Instructor, MIT Department of Biological Engineering and president of Biobuilder educational foundation''<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
All the team agrees that the iGEM competition can be resumed to teamwork, learning, friendship, proper lab practices, and most of all fun. Our goal is to emphasize what we think to be the four main cornerstones of the iGEM competition in one single kit containing four sections: “Education”, “safety”, “sharing” and “fun”. We had for ambitious objective to include these four aspects in one and single human practice project to have an impact on the student community of Switzerland. Of course we agree that shipping our kits wasn’t really easy foe safety reasons so we decided to create our kit, so it could be used in several events organized at our university. For instance highschool students visit day, our science bus that promotes science within our younger students and of course the women&Engineering day, the team organized. <br />
<br />
<br />
Our team has translated all the material of our '''kit in the 3 national languages''': [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4a/Team-EPF-Lausanne_68.pdf German], [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/2/27/Team-EPF-Lausanne_6.pdf French] and [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4d/Team-EPF-Lausanne_7.pdf Italian] and in [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf English]. The kit is entirely designed by us and contains awesome educational material kindly provided by Biobuilder. <br />
<br />
<br />
'''The kit contains:''' <br />
<br />
-'''[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf An introduction to synthetic biology]''' written by the team and a '''glossary''' explaining the fundamental elements of synthetic biology; In order to introduce the students to the subject and to the iGEM competition. This document reflects the vision and the summer experience of the team regarding the iGEM competition. It will definitely motivate the students to participate to such an experience!<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
-Our team not only aims to introduce the students to synthetic biology but also wants to help the teachers by providing them educational protocols easy to perform, explaining clearly and in a fun way the fundaments of Synthetic biology. Therefore we provide a protocol divided in two parts '''a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/7/72/Team-EPF-Lausanne_3.pdf teacher protocol]” and a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/5/53/Team-EPF-Lausanne_2.pdf Student” protocol]'''. The teacher protocol is filled up with '''tips, youtube video links''' to show how to perform some steps of the protocol, and references to material supplies. The Student protocol is meant to guide the student with '''clear pictures of the protocol's steps''' taken by the team and small tips to help them through the experiment. We provide two protocols one courtesy of [http://openwetware.org/images/2/26/BioBuilding_Students_Lab4.pdf Biobuilder] and one [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/e/e0/Transformation_fr.pdf done by ourselves] meant to transform competent E.Coli with '''[http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1111005 our team’s plasmid]'''.

Through our kit the team wanted to express its sympathy to '''[http://www.biobuilder.org BioBuilder]''', because we all think it's an awesome site and because we just love it! Not only it is educative and useful tool but it also challenging and fun. Because we totally share this vision of synthetic biology, we wanted to collaborate with BioBuilder in order to make Swiss high school students aware of this awesome site. Indeed as a part of our "human practice" for the iGEM competition, we wanted to make this site a reference for high school students in Switzerland. Our vision is to suggest a kit assembling some basic synthetic biology fundamentals easy to perform in high schools and add some BioBuilder "material" to the kit for instance: links to their site, some '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/activities/ comics]''' and links to their '''[http://www.biobuilder.org/animations/ animations]'''. So we contacted Professor Nathalie H.Kuldell president of '''[http://biobuildereducationalfoundation.org Biobuilder Educational Foundation]''', in order to share with us some of Biobuilder’s awesome content. <br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
'''Education that is challenging and fun is really at the heart of what we do- and it sounds like what you do too.''' <br />

All the team agrees that the iGEM competition can be resumed to teamwork, learning, friendship, proper lab practices, and most of all fun. Our goal is to emphasize what we think to be the four main cornerstones of the iGEM competition in one single kit containing four sections: “Education”, “safety”, “sharing” and “fun”. We had for ambitious objective to include these four aspects in one and single human practice project to have an impact on the student community of Switzerland. Of course we agree that shipping our kits wasn’t really easy foe safety reasons so we decided to create our kit, so it could be used in several events organized at our university. For instance highschool students visit day, our science bus that promotes science within our younger students and of course the women&Engineering day, the team organized. <br />
<br />
<br />
Our team has translated all the material of our '''kit in the 3 national languages''': [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4a/Team-EPF-Lausanne_68.pdf German], [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/2/27/Team-EPF-Lausanne_6.pdf French] and [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/4/4d/Team-EPF-Lausanne_7.pdf Italian] and in [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf English]. The kit is entirely designed by us and contains awesome educational material kindly provided by Biobuilder. <br />
<br />
<br />
'''The kit contains:''' <br />
<br />
-'''[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/9/99/Team-EPF-Lausanne_1.pdf An introduction to synthetic biology]''' written by the team and a '''glossary''' explaining the fundamental elements of synthetic biology; In order to introduce the students to the subject and to the iGEM competition. This document reflects the vision and the summer experience of the team regarding the iGEM competition. It will definitely motivate the students to participate to such an experience!<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
-Our team not only aims to introduce the students to synthetic biology but also wants to help the teachers by providing them educational protocols easy to perform, explaining clearly and in a fun way the fundaments of Synthetic biology. Therefore we provide a protocol divided in two parts '''a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/7/72/Team-EPF-Lausanne_3.pdf teacher protocol]” and a “[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/5/53/Team-EPF-Lausanne_2.pdf Student” protocol]'''. The teacher protocol is filled up with '''tips, youtube video links''' to show how to perform some steps of the protocol, and references to material supplies. The Student protocol is meant to guide the student with '''clear pictures of the protocol's steps''' taken by the team and small tips to help them through the experiment. We provide two protocols one courtesy of [http://openwetware.org/images/2/26/BioBuilding_Students_Lab4.pdf Biobuilder] and one [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/e/e0/Transformation_fr.pdf done by ourselves] meant to transform competent E.Coli with '''[http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1111005our team’s plasmid]'''. And last but not least a small '''[https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2013/a/a5/Team-EPF-Lausanne_5.pdf summary of the expected results]''' with and explanations.<br />
