UNAM-Genomics_Mexico presents:

Hydrobium etli

for iGEM competition 2011

Hydrogen. The doubtful begining, the unreachable end. Our paths, both the one drawn in the maps of our heads and the one awaiting our fall in reality, will be written here, with blood and sweat, for other adventurers wishing to reach the border of what our knowledge lights.

Arrows, bow, rope, shield, sword. The warrior relies heavily on his tools. This is why trustworthy tools are not necessary but vital along the travel. The blacksmith is a hero too. Here is his story.

Wizard wisdom lights all heroes paths. The seers ability to overcome trouble beffore it presents itself saves resources and lives. Being a step ahead can make the difference.

There are many kinds of wizards. Most of them lack the beard, the hat and the magic wand. But you must not be deluded. They can be just as powerful. They are vital for any heroic campaign.

Yes, wizards don't know it all. But who does?

If while saving the princess you destroy the kingdom, you're no hero.

Little heroes save their princess. Big heroes save towns, cities or nations. Great heroes save the people.

This is how we changed along the path:

• Our logbook (or the team's tale)
• Our tools, and how they grew old with us
• Our memories, imprinted in minds and bytes
• Ourselves (as childs, teens, men and women)

Thank you Puss in Boots, thank you Tinker Bell, thank you Godmother
