Team:IIT-Madras/People


Team

We are a group of undergraduates studying the Department of Biotechnology in IIT Madras. We are passionate about synthetic biology and deeply believe in its potential to have an unforeseen impact on society and human progress. Guided by our enthusiastic mentors Dr.Shashi Bala Prasad, Prof.Guhan Jayaraman and Prof. Nitish Mahapatra, we started work on our project in April and never looked back. We are truly fortunate to have a team comprising people with varied and complementary skill sets. Our overarching goal is to bring synthetic biology truly under the field of engineering, by developing better systems and tools.

Collaborations

We firmly believe that iGEM is a global collaborative exercise to further the progress of synthetic biology. In this spirit, we collaborated with many iGEM teams this year - Paris Bettencourt, Hong Kong HKUST, IISC Bangalore and SVCE Chennai). We participated in the Indian iGEM team meet up that was held at SVCE in July.
