Ekainaren 26an asteazkenean, 2019ko fisiologia begetaleko kongresuan egon ginen, Baluarte Jauregian. Goizean zehar, boluntario bezala lan egin genuen, txostengileei haien poster zientifikoekin laguntzen, eta eraikinaren barruan gidatzen. Gainera, zientzialariei gure proiektuari buruz hitz egiteko eta haiengandik ikasteko izan genituen aukera guztiak aprobetxatu genituen.
Goizean zehar ere, EFE Agentziako kazetari batek Natalia Dudareva txostengileari elkarrizketa bat egiteko laguntza behar izan zuen itzulpena egiteko. Beraz, Arantza Arrizurietak itzultzaile lana egin zuen ingelesetik gaztelera eta alderantziz.
Jateko orduan NavarraBG2018ko taldekide batzuekin elkartu ginen, eta mundu osoko iGEM txapelketan izandako bizipenak gurekin partekatu zituzten, haien proiektua (Biogalaxy) epaileen esker ona izan zuelako. Bestalde, Valentziako iGEM UPV taldearen bi partaidekin hitz egiteko aukera izan genuen. Ilusio handia egin zigun haien taldea pasaden urteko unibertsitate mailako irabazlea izan zelako, guztira 5 sari irabazi zituzten haien Printeria proiektuari esker.
Arratsaldean, “Young people in plant science” saioan egon ginen, eta iGEM UPV eta NavarraBG 2018 taldeek haien proiektuak aurkeztu zituzten, Bostonen egin zuten bezala.
Ondoren, Raúl Herranz eta José Eduardo González-Pastor astrobiologoekin elkartu ginen, eta Carolina González de Figueras eta Alicia Villacampa Calvorekin batera haien grabitate gabeko simulazio esperimentua azaldu ziguten.
Bukatzeko, Iruñako Katedralera abiatu ginen. Bertan, museoa bisitatu, musika entzun, aurresku dantza ikusi eta koktel bat disfrutatu genuen, mota desberdin askotako janaria probatuz.
NavarraBG: International plant physiology congress
On wednesday 26th of June we attended the International plant physiology congress in the Congresses palace Baluarte. During the morning, we voluntarily worked as staff members, helping the speakers with their scientific posters and guiding them throughout the building. In addition, we took advantage of every opportunity to tell them about our project and we also listened to them in order to learn as much as possible.
Moreover, during the morning, there was a journalist of Agency EFE to interview the speaker Natalia Dudareva. This interviewer needed a person to help him translate what the speaker said, so Arantza Arrizurieta offered herself to translate from english to spanish and vice versa throughout the interview.
At lunch time we gathered together with the members of NavarraBG2018, which told us about their experience after participating in the global synthetic biology contest iGEM, their project, Biogalaxy, obtained several acknowledgements in Boston. We also had the opportunity to talk with two of the members of the team iGEM UPV from Valencia. It was particularly thrilling due to, last year, they had been the winner team in the universitary category, awarded with 5 special prizes thanks to their project Printeria.
In the afternoon, we attended the session “Young people in plant science” and the team iGEM UPV and NavarraBG2018 presented their respective projects just as they did in Boston.
Subsequently, we met Raúl Herranz and José Eduardo González-Pastor that along with Carolina González de Figueras and Alicia Villacampa Calvo explained us their experiment of Simulation of absence of gravity.
At the end of the day, we visited Pamplona’s Cathedral where we could visit its museum, listen to classical music, watch a traditional dancing and enjoy different varieties of food in the cocktail.
