Welcome to the USNA iGEM Wikipage!
Editing the Human Microbiome: Proactively Preventing Aerosolized Conotoxin Attack
Conotoxins are small neurotoxins that bind to and affect the opening and closing of ion channels, thus altering membrane potential and disrupting neurological signaling pathways. Due to their small size, conotoxins could be easily aerosolized and could be used as biological weapons of mass destruction. Our goal of this project has two components. The first is to create a program to mathematically model both normal and conotoxin-affected intracellular ion concentrations. The second is to develop a signaling and responding pathway to detect changes in membrane potential and eliminate the conotoxins.
The USNA Team
Aurelia Minut
Sarah Glaven
Dr. Sarah Glaven is a research biologist and microbial electrochemist at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, DC. She studies microbial extracellular electron transfer and its biotechnology applications including microbial fuel cells and microbial electrosynthesis.
Brian Eddie
Dr. Eddie is a microbiologist who primarily uses transcriptomics, genomics, and bioimaging to better understand bacterial metabolism so that we can exploit it.
Tanya Tschirhart
Tanya is a postdoctoral fellow at the Naval Research Lab whose work focuses on developing synthetic biology tools for marine organisms and new communication pathways across biotic-abiotic interfaces.
Brian Pate
Preston Fulmer
Lawrence Kennedy
Maggie Pana
Alex Ki
Trevor Karn
Trevor is a junior at the US Naval Academy, in the Honors Mathematics program, whose primary area of interest is combinatorics. He is originally from Plymouth, Minnesota, and hopes to serve as a submarine officer following graduation.
Seok Park

J. Fitzpatrick "Fitz" Doyle is a senior at George Mason University studying biology with minors in psychology and music. He is from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and he plans to go to graduate school for genetic counseling this upcoming fall.
Editing your wiki
On this page you can document your project, introduce your team members, document your progress and share your iGEM experience with the rest of the world!
Use WikiTools - Edit in the black menu bar to edit this page
Tips
This wiki will be your team’s first interaction with the rest of the world, so here are a few tips to help you get started:
- State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start.
- Be clear about what you are doing and how you plan to do this.
- You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.
- Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.
- Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.
- Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the iGEM 2016 calendar
- Have lots of fun!
Inspiration
You can also view other team wikis for inspiration! Here are some examples:
Uploading pictures and files
You can upload your pictures and files to the iGEM 2016 server. Remember to keep all your pictures and files within your team's namespace or at least include your team's name in the file name.
When you upload, set the "Destination Filename" to T--YourOfficialTeamName--NameOfFile.jpg. (If you don't do this, someone else might upload a different file with the same "Destination Filename", and your file would be erased!)
