Sharing our views and colaborating with other teams is one of our core principles as Skepsis iGEM. Throughout our journey we encouraged reaching out and work with other teams on science and non science difficulties that we faced.We have worked with teams in Thessaloniki and around Greece in developing experiments and models that played a significant role in our own path at the competition.
Our first colaboration with Nous iGEM took place in the early stages of our team's existence. At that time, the team consisted of 5 members and the main purpose of our colaboration was introducing iGEM and synthetic biology to our peers. The informative presentation of Nous iGEM helped us to bring the team to life and played a mentoring role in the first months. We then were able to come up with the idea of creating a biofilter.
Our second colaboration was with Patras Med iGEM, for which we used the power of our social media reach to promote iGEM, the competition and synthetic biology to our local communities
