Jr. High School Visits [ Back]


Colegio Labastida

Our team was a special guest, where we were part of the anual science fair; we made our presentation before approximately 300 children from different grades at junior high level. We completed the banana DNA extraction in a demonstrative exhibition; kids showed curiosity and interest towards the topic during the talk and the DNA extraction activity.


Colegio Independencia

We were invited to present our talk to last year junior high student, who were very interested in the topic; we perfomed the DNA extraction with whole groups.



Escuela Secundaria # 3

We participated with our talk and the project generation activity, using some already registered BioBricks; satisfactory results were obtained, as kids presented their own projects, showing that they understood the concept of Synthetic Biology and iGEM.


Colegio La Salle

We were invited to give our talk and to perform our activity of generating a Project using BioBricks. Kids were very enthusiastic. We also presented an introduction to Synthetic Biology and performed the DNA extraction.


Secundaria # 83

The team was invited to this junior high school in the municipality of Guadalupe. We gave our introductory talk about Synthetic Biology and performed the banana DNA extraction.


Memorable Experiences [ Back]


Cada uno de los miembros del equipo iGEM UANL vivió al igual que los jóvenes de las secundarias experiencias inolvidables. He aquí algunas de ellas:



Synthetic Biology Tunnel Back

The Synthetic Biology (SynBio) Tunnel is a project to massively inform the crowd. We gave people of all ages accurate information to understand what SynBio is and how it is carried out. In about 90 minutes and across ten interactive modules, we covered topics from basic molecular biology to applications of SynBio and iGEM. Our objective is to educate people in order to promote a founded, critic judgment. Voilà a glance at the tunnel modules:



SynBio Tunnel Now! Back to top

Synthetic Biology Tunnel was our main Human Practices activity last year [Tunnel Activity 2012]. We got an audience of approximately 7, 000 people when we made our first edition of the Tunnel at our Biology School, our second at the Niños Héroes part of the National Week of Science and Technology of the Nuevo Leon's state and our third at the Montemorelos Autodromus, a city from our state. But for this year, we continued with this activity, reaching an audience of more than 1,000 people in two more editions: The CIDEB edition and the Special Cuatrociénegas Edition.

Cuatrociénegas Edition

Last year, we reached about 7,000 people in the exhibition we called Synthetic Biology Tunnel 2012 . This year we continued to grow as we went to a small town named Cuatrociénegas, Coahuila, a place known for its great metagenomic diversity, whose people we believe should be aware of what the treasure they possess. Synthetic Biology Tunnel 2013 was a great experience both for local people and for us.

CIDEB Edition

This year we also designed a new exhibition for all ages to explain the application of Synthetic Biology in the main Biotechnological areas: medical, industrial, genomics, environmental, agriculture and marine. The Genomics Biotechnology Roundabout was exposed in two editions where we caught the attention of more than 4,000 people of all ages.
