The CMS team at Universidad de Antioquia, Colombia is involved with colleagues from other institutes in analysis mainly looking for dark matter signals and beyond-the-Standard-Model physics. They are also part of the Muon and GEMs subsystem team, cooperating with the Cosmic Stand tests of the GEMs chambers in terms of hardware tests and software development. The team is also starting a collaboration to study GEMs materials at home (Medellín, Colombia) in an interdisciplinary group of engineers, chemists and physicists, and is looking forward to help with optical communications and embedded systems. Finally, the group is cooperating with the development of ROOT, the computer tools used to analyse particle-physics data and one of the group’s members has worked towards the integration of the R statistics program and ROOT.
