Making Mammalian SynBio Accessible

Mammalian SynBio Toolkit: pDest-mCherry and Parts Collection

We created a destination plasmid with a fluorescent protein selection marker that can be used for cloning mammalian parts. We submitted a collection of well-characterized mammalian parts to the registry, in hopes that this will help future iGEM teams work in mammalian synthetic biology.

Scientific Collaboration and Public Outreach

Met with Experts in Endometriosis

We met with Dr. Asgi Fasleabas and Professor Linda Griffith to learn more about endometriosis.

Building with Biology

** Julia has written this up

Articles on The Odyssey

One of our team members published three articles over the summer related to iGEM, synthetic biology, and women's health.

Industry Visits

We presented our work at LabCentral and Monsanto and learned about synthetic biology in industry.
