We are descendants from a place that emerged from a very slow geological process from millions  of years ago. Results that still impact the world. This place is called '''PANAMA'''. A place where history can be divided into many chapters. Beginning with the linking of North and South America, enabling the exchange of species from both locations, making evolution possible to make use of this place as a huge laboratory. Years later in our [https://2011.igem.org/Team:Panama/aboutPanama/history '''history'''] this became one of the scenarios for pirates looking for gold in the new world. This earth that links the world, owns one of the greatest engineering milestones, The [https://2011.igem.org/Team:Panama/aboutPanama/canal '''Panama Canal'''], and now the expansion of it is without precedent. We as young scientist are part of the enterprise involving genetic engineering through the [https://2011.igem.org/Main_Page '''iGEM'''] competition. Now Panama has two great engineering projects, one is the expansion of the Panama canal as a macro engineering project and our project as micro and nano scale engineering. This makes us pioneers in this field in our country.
