Week: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12


Week 12 : 12th of September to 18th of September

Monday

It's the final week! The iGEM 'wiki-freeze' is also closely approaching - when we can no longer make ammendments to it (to aid its being judged). There's therefore a lot of hurried tapping-away at his keyboard from our wiki maestro Haydn.

The team are now down to four people; there are reports of tumbleweeds in the further corners of the lab.

Tuesday

Reflectin is a protein taken from a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eukaryote eukaryote], so it's no surprise that it doesn't work as it does in squid when we [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_expression express] it in E. coli (a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prokaryote prokaryote]). Out of curiosity the team are expressing it in (eukaryotic) onion cells, with the aid of a 'gene gun' - we'll literally fire little bits of DNA into the cells. Cool? Yup.

The final blog post - thanks for reading. It's only two weeks before the European Jamboree; if the team get through to Boston and the wiki becomes unfrozen we'll post the adventures we'll have had in Amsterdam. If you're interested in our thoughts on the Summer as a whole and achievments take a look at our conclusion page.
