合成生物学的盛会iGEM 2024在巴黎召开 本站创办人代表MIT竞逐本科组

关于iGEM： 国际基因工程机器大赛（iGEM）始于2003年，由麻省理工学院（MIT）创办，是一项面向全球的合成生物学竞赛。iGEM旨在鼓励学生通过团队合作，设计和构建新的生物系统，解决现实世界的问题。每年，来自世界各地的团队都会在iGEM的舞台上展示他们的项目，角逐各类奖项。

iGEM (“International Genetically Engineered Machine”) is a worldwide synthetic biology competition aimed at promoting the safe and open development of engineered biology. iGEM started at MIT as an IAP (“Independent Activities Period”) course in January 2003 before becoming a competition in 2004 and growing to hundreds of teams in more than 40 countries globally today.
iGEM（"国际基因工程机器"）是一项世界性的合成生物学竞赛，旨在促进工程生物学的安全和开放发展。iGEM 于 2003 年 1 月作为 IAP（"独立活动期"）课程在麻省理工学院启动，2004 年成为一项竞赛，如今已发展到全球 40 多个国家的数百个团队。

In iGEM, student-led teams devise an independent research project in a iGEM track of their choosing, ranging from diagnostics to nutrition to manufacturing. The goal is identify a problem, devise gene circuits to address it, and demonstrate a proof of concept in the lab.
在 iGEM 中，学生领导的团队在他们选择的 iGEM 赛道中设计一个独立的研究项目，范围从诊断到营养到制造。目标是找出一个问题，设计基因电路来解决问题，并在实验室中展示概念验证。

The MIT iGEM team consists of students from a wide range of departments and disciplines, including biology, bioengineering, electrical engineering and computer science, math, chemistry, mechanical engineering, architecture, and more. Since 2003, the MIT iGEM team has been supported by the MIT Synthetic Biology Center and the Weiss Lab, and is currently operating out of the Huang-Hobbs BioMaker Space (HHBMS).
MIT iGEM 团队由来自多个院系和学科的学生组成，包括生物学、生物工程、电气工程和计算机科学、数学、化学、机械工程、建筑学等。自 2003 年以来，麻省理工学院 iGEM 团队得到了麻省理工学院合成生物学中心和 Weiss 实验室的支持，目前在 Huang-Hobbs BioMaker Space (HHBMS) 之外运营。

2024 MIT-iGEM参赛项目视频：Targeting cancer metastasis

Did you know that cancer metastasis is responsible for 90% of cancer-related deaths?


That's why we came up with MetaPlate, a platelet-based therapeutic to detect circulating tumor cell (CTC) clusters, preventing cancer metastasis at its root cause.
