Tuesday

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

Wednesday

Brainstorm Project Ideas

The team came up with a few more ideas (ex. making bacteria clean water, cholera, inteins) and then shortlisted the ideas. Sam, Gurpal, and Joe will research photovoltaics. Marianne, Daisy, and Joe will research the cholera toxin; Vicki and Jacob will research bedbugs.
