Contribution to "TUPLS-Tokyo"



We have supported a new iGEM team from Tokyo University of Pharmacy and Life Sciences, “TUPLS-Tokyo”. This team was established in 2013, and they are going to participate in the iGEM competition in 2014.


In June, we knew that some students of Tokyo University of Pharmacy and Life Sciences established new iGEM team. In order to support the team, we held a meeting on June 30 and invited them to our university. Before this meeting, we received a lot of question about our team and our project from them. So we made the document which has the answers to their questions. We also guided our experiment space and let them show our laboratory instrument and experimental protocol. Additionally, We invited them to the iGEM Japan Meeting that was held in our university. As a result, they became able to have a lot of connection with other iGEM teams in Japan.


Tokyo University of Pharmacy and Life Sciences is in the place that is very near to our university, so we intend to continue the support to TUPLS-Tokyo as far as possible. Finally, we put up a comment from TUPLS-Tokyo’s team leader, Mr. Mezawa.



Tokyo Metropolitan University iGEM team, TMU-Tokyo was giving us a lot of support for development of our team.


On June 30, we participated in the meeting that held at Tokyo Metropolitan University. In this meeting, TMU-Tokyo gave us the document in which they wrote the detailed answers to our questions. This document were useful and we came to understand how we should run our team, how we get a fund, and so on. Also we could observe their experiment facilities.


We were invited iGEM Japan Meeting held at Tokyo Metropolitan University on August 25. In this meeting, many Japanese iGEM teams participated and we were able to have a lot of connection with them. TMU-Tokyo team is our important supporter, and we want them to continue to support us.
