To summarize, they have been more than project advisors. They have not only trained us as professionals, we have also learned from them day by day as human beings.

They have transmitted to us the values of teamwork, companionship and honesty, supported us in the days when nothing went well in the laboratory and everything was chaos, making us see that not everything goes well in research and that the important thing is not to give up and look for where the failures are so as not to commit them again.

We want to thank them for getting involved in this adventure that has been to introduce us to iGEM and for letting us play an active role in the project without leaving us alone at any time.
