Team Training and Project Start

Our institution (Stanford University) is well equipped for synthetic biology work, as an undergraduate Bioengineering program with several lab courses exists in full force. We alternated between using Dr. Lynn Rothschild's lab at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the open-resource Uytengsu Teaching Center in Stanford's bioengineering and chemical engineering building, Shriram. Most of the members on the Stanford side of the team became acquainted with bioengineering lab work through BIOE44 (Fundamentals for Engineering Biology Lab). This course is generally taken as a sophomore, and some of our team members took it during the fall quarter of 2015-2016 (9/21/2015-12/11/2015). Materials for this course, such as the syllabus, are readily available online: Here is an example from 2014.

Our team brainstorms and cross-continental team Skype sessions in March 2016, where we stitched together rough subprojects and the overall theme of bioballoon. Our work in the lab did not start until late May 2016, when the Brown students ended their spring semester and travelled to California to work with the Stanford side in person. Stanford students got to lab after finishing their spring quarter in late June. All projects were begun by the Brown students, and ended by the Stanford students during the regular school year as the Jamboree approached.
