Congratulations to our undergraduate student Pablo Torres Campos for presenting his poster "Nest-site characteristics, diet, and activity patterns of the Peters's squirrel" at the XXVII International Course Biological Bases of Behavior in Morelia, Michoacán.
The poster presented the results of the study conducted for the Verano de la Ciencia Región Centro 2022, with the participation of the undergraduate students: Pablo Torres, Ximena Zamora and Diego Aznar, and supervised by Dr. Nicolás Ramos-Lara. Congratulations to the Crimson Wolves Team for obtaining the Bronze Medal at the iGEM Design League with their proposal to create a precise mechanism to detect colorectal cancer! They also got nominations in two categories: Best design implementation and Best scientific infographic.
The International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competition is a worldwide synthetic biology competition that was initially aimed at undergraduate university students, but has since expanded to include divisions for high school students, entrepreneurs, and community laboratories. Congratulations to Dr. Glenda Chavez for her recent presentation at the International Congress of Innovation and Sustainability, ICONIS 2022.

Her work is being done in collaboration with the Wine Cluster of Querétaro.
Congratulations to Dr. Maria Juarez (Director of Science and Mathematics), Dr. Nadyra Rodriguez (Professor of Business), Dr. Saul Esparza (Professor of Business), Dr. Hugo Flores (Professor of Mathematics), and Dr. Lucia Zatarain (Professor of Biology) for being accepted or promoted as fellows of Conacyt's National System of Researchers (SNI).
Our goal is to create a precise mechanism for detecting colorectal cancer (CRC). We propose the use of a genetically modified probiotic that will express pigments. In the colon, it will detect CRC by antigen overexpression, leading to the activation of a genetic kill switch, causing bacterial cell death and releasing the pigments into the colon. Feces containing these pigments can be analyzed, resulting in a more precise CRC detection method.

Congratulations to Dr. Miguel Ángel García-Ariza for his latest publication: "Adiabatic lapse rate of real gases", in Physical Review E, from the American Physical Society.
This year, Arkansas State University - Campus Querétaro - will participate in the 24th edition of the Verano de la Ciencia de la Región Centro for the first time. Undergraduate students, Alfredo Mendoza Mendoza from Universidad Politécnica de San Luis Potosí, and Kenya Villanueva García from Instituto Tecnológico de Celaya, will be visiting us to work on projects. At the same time, ASUCQ undergraduate students Javier Aguirre González and Natalia Estrada Hernández will be visiting Universidad Politécnica de Querétaro and Universidad Autónoma de Querétaro, respectively. In addition, undergraduate students Edna Arciga Contreras, Miren Ugarte Maldonado, Diego Aznar Cruz, Pablo Torres Campos, and Ximena Zamora Prieto will work on internal projects with ASUCQ professors. The International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competition is a worldwide synthetic biology competition that was initially aimed at undergraduate university students, but has since expanded to include divisions for high school students, entrepreneurs, and community laboratories.
In 2021 a new format of the competition was launched: iGEM Design League, specifically aimed at Latin America. This year, Arkansas State University - Campus Querétaro - has entered the iGEM Design League competition for the first time. Our team consists of recently-graduated alumni and undergraduate students. The competition kick-off took place on June 25th and will end by late November / early December. Congratulations to Dr. Saúl Esparsa for his latest publication: Corporate Social Responsibility Practices at PEMEX: An Analysis on stakeholders.
