Our Notebook

On this page you can view the work we did each month, from February through October.

February

Week 1 (8/2-14/2)

  • Introduction to iGEM by instructor Dr. Steven Hussey
  • Team member roles were discussed
  • We looked at previous successful iGEM projects

Week 2 (15/2-21/2)

  • Vaughn presented slides on photo-bioelectrochemical cells as the basis of a potential 2016 iGEM project
  • A general discussion and brainstorming session followed the presentation
  • Dr Hussey would be contacting individual students to ascertain their interest in being a 2016 team member, before the final selection will take place

Week 3 (22/2-28/2)

  • We looked at three iGEM teams with photosynthesis-related projects. These are iGEM McGuire, iGEM Brown-Stanford and iGEM Harvard
  • Discussion on bioelectrical and photoelectochemical cell prototypes
  • Suggestion of designing aptamers to identify a conserved protein on chloroplasts. Aptamers also designed to be attracted to graphene.
