iGEM Uppsala YouTube Channel

During the project of Uppsala iGEM 2014, our YouTube channel was born and since then our teams have contributed with more videos every year. In our YouTube channel, we post videos about synthethic biology, iGEM, our city and some fun spoofs!

Microfluidic chip instruction video

The team of 2016 designed and built their own microfluidic chip! See how they did in this instruction video.

iGEM Funk

See the team of 2015 in this totally fabulous music video.

Nordic iGEM Conference

Here is a brief wrap-up of all the fun we had during the Nordic iGEM Conference in Uppsala 2015. We had the honor of having Randy Rettberg, cofounder of iGEM, as a guest and here you can watch an interview with him.

What is synthetic biology?

Follow Kira as she explains what synthetic biology is and what application it has in our modern society. Best watched with Ben and Jerry.

Uppsala touring and spoofs

Take a tour around Uppsala with our guide Teresa Reinli. She will take you to all the great landmarks of Uppsala and show you some of our tradition that the students of Uppsala have been so famous for! Alos don't forget to check out our musical spoofs about iGEM.

Media Coverage

Media is the most efficient way of informing the public in a national or global scale. This is what makes media so important for us at iGEM Uppsala. We want to spread the many possibilities of synthetic biology and genetically modified organisms (GMO). In order for the public to understand why we perform our projects, the public needs to know the true nature of the problem that we are trying to solve.
