Meetup Latam 2021
To get involved with other team projects and for everyone to grow together we hosted the LATAM Meetup 2021. Where Giant Jamboree and Design League igem teams were able to show their advances, practice and clean their presentations while receiving feedback from our professional judging panel. This event was enriching in many cultural, social and academic ways. Since we had a social bonding dynamic “speed talks' ' where every attendee had the opportunity to meet and talk with another peer, was a successful way to get more collaboration and knowledge between teams.
Green Fest
External students group “Huella verde”. A channel where we exposed a problem to a large audience with impact. We, as a team, are seriously concerned about the well-being of the community and care of the environment. Therefore, our interests connected with those of the Huella Verde student group in which they were taught wellness, science and math conferences as a garbage recollection as well. People, teams, speakers, schools attended virtually from all over Mexico to this excellent event where we gave a conference about our project and the microplastic and EDC´s problem we are facing.
Zeta Sizer
NOVA Portugal and iGEM TEC MTY. EDC´s messes up with metabolic pathways making an unbalanced work inside our bodies imitating our hormones. The multiple sources from where we can ingest them such as microplastics are several, but principally, drinking plastic bottles, where our right of clean water, health & wellness are compromised…we wanted to know approximately how much they are in our daily life and not only stay in Mexican brands. Therefore, we collaborated with NOVA Portugal and TEC MTY for this task. These studies with the objective of supporting the collection of data in order to create regulatory frameworks for microplastics in bottled water and ensure the right to health in our countries.
