Revision as of 00:14, 28 October 2010
Synbioworld is a collaborative web platform created to give the synthetic biology community a place to talk, share data and resources, and stay abreast of new developments in the field. The site is based on a CMS system that allows for all the normal features of a blog, but also allows for seamless user management in the various apps we have on the site. SynBioWorld inludes the following features:
Contents |
News
SynBioWorld will aggregate several Twitter and RSS feeds related to synthetic biology. Original content will also be created by the team and members of the community.
Librarian
Librarian is an algorithm and UI frame that automatically aggregates, displays and allows to search through papers, scientists, and institutions relevant to synthetic biology.
Forum
This feature will finally answer the repeated request of members of the community, in particular iGEM participants. It will be moderated by volunteers from the community (over 50 people have already expressed interest in helping out.)
Events
All events relevant to the synthetic biology community will be announced on the site.
Furthermore, we are working on a partnership with the new talk aggregation site SittingO,
which has been described as the “imdb of the conference circuit” to provide a huge annotated
database of synthetic biology talks.
- and - as contribution of this year's from our team...
openProtocol
Experimental Protocols are an important tool of synthetic biologists both when doing and publishing experiments. The ideal protocol must be flexible: both detailed enough for a beginner to complete the experiment successfully, but concise enough for an expert to be able to comfortably make use of it to guide their experiment.
openProtocol is a website that allows people to create protocols using a simple web form, and have them come out automatically formatted and laid out in a beautiful and easy to use way. Every openProtocol has its own URL, and can therefore be shared with a link. Each protocol on the site can be commented on by users and other researchers, allowing you to receive feedback on the way you carry out a certain experiment, as well as solve problems with tricky protocols. Further, each protocol can be "forked," that is, you can make a copy of any protocol you like to customize for your own lab's situation. Adding pictures and audio to your protocols is easy, and even videos can be embedded as part of your procedure. You also have the choice of associating a "cheat sheet" type list with each protocol, so that you can have something to take with you to the bench in lieu of the full protocol.
Usage Ideas
We envision several groups of people using openProtocol in quite a few different ways. Here are some examples to get you started thinking about ways you can use openProtocol in your own research!
- Teachers teaching an experimental class can use openProtocols and allow their students to individually annotate and edit the protocols for future classes. In this way, extremely clear and usable protocols can be developed for classroom use.
- Researchers publishing a paper that involves several new methods can include a link to an openProtocol as a supplement to their Materials and Methods section. Having easy access to a complete protocol online greatly increases the speed at which new and interesting methods can catch on and become popular.
- Lab managers can place all of a labs protocols on openProtocol to make standardization within a lab easier. Individual lab personnel can customize protocols to their liking, and can directly embed them in online lab-notebooks or use the beautifully formatted printed versions in a traditional lab notebook.
- iGEMers can use openProtocol to clearly lay out new and interesting ways to manipulate biobricks, as well as to standardize protocols for the most commonly done procedures like enzyme digestions and minipreps. Many common mistakes can in this way be eliminated ("with enough eyes, all bugs are shallow.")
FAQ
- OK, so where can I get started?
- You can sign up http://synbioworld.org/openprotocol here . Additionally, there will be a demo of openProtocol at the iGEM jamboree during our workshop on Saturday!
- Is openProtocol open source?
- Yes, openProtocol is open source, and all protocols included on the site are by default licensed under a Creative Commons license. However, if some labs desire to have a protocol be kept private or copyrighted, that does not preclude its inclusion for viewing by others on openProtocol.
- Can I contribute to the openProtocol project?
- Absolutely! We are particularly interested in recruiting new members to our team that have expertise in versioning control systems, the jQuery javascript framework, and scaling database solutions. Others are also welcome: get in touch with our project lead Eric at eric.meltzer at google's popular webmail client dot com.

Collaboration
In the course of developing our new tech standard "openProtocol" we have received invaluable assistance from both the UCSF team and the Peking University team. UCSF assisted us with the early design for the system, and tirelessly gave us protocols to test the system with. They put up with endless changes and iterations to the design, and without them the current version of openProtocol would be unusable. In return, we have assisted them in turning all of their protocols into openProtocols, facilitating their easy dissemination and standardization. Peking University's team also contributed a large set of protocols, and has provided us with a great deal of useful advice on the internationalization of our openProtocol tool. Thanks guys!
