Brainstorm Project Ideas

The team came together and compiled a list of potential iGEM projects:

  • "Do It Yourself" biology (ex. build PCR machine)
  • Optogenetics
  • Chemo-signalling (using antibodies as signals)
  • Rerouting networks (creating fusion proteins that make extra interactions to interfere with natural protein links)
  • Eradicate bed bugs
  • Eradicate pine beetles
  • Battery waste
  • Photo-dynamic inhibition (bacteria are killed by light)
  • Biomolecules
  • Use DNA to control enzymatic reactions
