TEAM ALBERTA

GENOMIKON


The Idea

GENOMIKON evolved from a team objective to bring synthetic biology to high school students. This proved to be a tall task as a high school environment has many limitations that don't apply to university research labs.

To work GENOMIKON must be:

  • Inexpensive
  • Require very little expensive equipment (autoclaves, centrifuges, -70C freezers)
  • Fast
  • Efficicent
  • Easily shipped

The Innovation

The limitations imposed by the high school requirements forced our team to design a new standard for the assembly and production of DNA parts, BioBytes 2.0
