1. Register and attend: Register and Attend the 2016 iGEM Jamboree.
We registered for and attended the 2016 iGEM Jamboree. We also had a phenomenal summer.
2. Deliverables: Meet all the deliverables on the Requirements page.
We completed all of the required deliverables, including but not limited to creating this Wiki, writing a poster, developing a presentation, and sending DNA samples of our new Parts.
3. Attribution: Create a page on your team wiki with clear attribution of each aspect of your project. This page must clearly attribute work done by the students and distinguish it from work done by other, including host labs, advisors, instructors, sponsors, professional website designers, artists, and commercial services.
We created an attribution list to thank everyone for all of their help and services that aided in the completion of our project. We also want to give credit where credit is due. You can find our full Attribution List here.
4. Part / Contribution: Document at least one new standard BioBrick Part or Device central to your projectand submit this part to the iGEM Registry You may also document a new application of a BioBrick part from a previous iGEM year, adding that documentation to the part main page.
We have documented and submitted BBa_K1875000 and BBa_K18750001 new standard BioBrick Composite Part that are central to our project to the iGEM Registry. You can read about them on our Parts page.

1. Validated Part / Validated Contribution: Experimentally validate that at least one new BioBrick Part of Device of your own design and construction works as expected. Document this characterization of this part in the Main Page section of that Part's/Device's Registry entry. Submit this new part to the iGEM Parts Registry. This working part must be different from the part documented in bronze medal criterion #4.
We have validated that our new BioBrick Composite Part, BBa_K18750002- BBa_K18750007, different from Bronze BBa_K1875000 and BBa_K18750001, works as expected. See our Proof of Concept and Results page or the (Part Registry entry) page to see how. . See our Proof of Concept and Results or the Part Registry entry page to see how.
2. Collaboration: Convince the judges you have helped any registered iGEM team from high school, a different track, another university or another institution in a significant way by, for example, mentoring a new team, characterizing a part,, debugging a construct, modeling/simulating their system or helping validate a software/hardware solution to a synbio problem.
We collaborated with several iGEM teams over the course of this project. To highlight a couple, we helped MIT develop their recombinase circuit, validated WPI's work using flow cytometry and FlowJo, and created a blog about open and closed sourcing in synbio with the BostonU HW (Hardware) team. Check out all of our Collaborations with other iGEM teams here.
3. Human Practices: iGEM projects involve important questions beyond the lab bench, for example relating to (but not limited to) ethics, sustainability, social justice, safety, security, and intellectual property rights. Demonstrate how your team has identified, investigated, and addresed one or more of these issues in the context of your project. Your activity could center around education, public engagement, public policy issues, public perception, or other activities.
We completed two distinct Human Practices projects. One project included intblog. Our other project began when we were invited to the Museum of Science's Building with Biology event to interact with the public and introduce them to synthetic biology security and ethics. You can read about Project: Source here and Building with Biology here.

1. Integrated Human Practices: Expand on your silver medal activity by demonstrating how you have integrated the investigated issues into the design and/or execution of your project.
Inspired by a forum held after Building with Biology, we decided to create ethical forums for high school students that focused on foundational advancements in synthetic biology, from Martian Colonization to Genetically Engineering the Mosquito. These forums provided background about the topic to be discussed, several plans of action, considerations to keep in mind when drawing to a conclusion, and questions to aid students to come to a solution. You can read all four of our forums and our high school visits at Project: Forums.
2. Improve a previous part or project: Improve the function OR characerization of an existing BioBrick Part or Device and enter this information in the Registry. The part must NOT be from your 2016 part number range.

3. Proof of Concept:Demonstrate a functional proof of concept of your project. Your proof of concept must consist of a BioBrick device; a single BioBrick part cannot constitute a proof of concept.

4. Demonstrate your work: Show your project working under real-world conditions. To achieve this criterion, you should demonstrate your whole system, or a functional proof of concept, working under simulated conditions in the lab.
