Human practices
Instead of reaching to the whole population, we decided to use the Human Practices for introducing the iGEM community to microfluidics. Being from a technology institute, we took advantage of our university's expertise to use microfluidics chips in our project.
This technology is a powerful tool for biological research, having a wide range of applications. Here is a non-exhaustive list:
- measure DNA-protein interaction, for transcription factors
- detect protein-protein interaction, such as antibody binding
