The Team Members:
10 members:
5 biology students
4 computer science students
1 mathematics student
Financial Resources:
We have raised the money to cover for the registration of the team and individual members, as well as travel and local expenses for the instructors for the May meeting and approximately 60% of the corresponding costs for the students corresponding to the November meeting.
Some of the instructors are willing to devote part of their grants to support the IPN-UNAM iGEM team.
We have a grant from a current project which will allow us to cover the initial expenses. In the meantime, we have submitted another grant proposal specifically for iGEM. This proposal is likely to be accepted within the next three months.
