iGEM Saint-Joseph

We are Saint-Joseph High School Student Team participating in the iGEM Competition since 2018. The iGEM (International Genetically Engineered Machine) competition is a worldwide synthetic biology competition. This year's project: Behcheck is a Lateral Flow Assay Test Kit for the presence of HLA-B51 protein. Studies show that the presence of this protein variation remains the most important genetic factor for the Behçet’s Disease. Furthermore, this specific factor has the highest relation rate among non-phenotypic factors (determined by pathergy tests). 2023 | Behcheck ⌛ 2021 | Cellulophile 🥈 2019 | LAKECASE 2018 | RAFI (Revolutionary Approach to Fish Infection) 🥉
