|'''Friday 28th May 2010''' - The whole team's very first brainstorm. Focusing on the water industry, we managed to develop some interesting ideas to research further, which includes:
+
display:none;
-
1. Self healing pipes - a method for pipes to 'recover' from damage using bacterial biofilms.
+
}
-
2. Water desalination - how we can use specialised bacteria to lower the salt content of sea water to make it drinkable.

3. Lowering nitrate levels - using bacteria to lower nitrate levels in rivers, helping to promote healthy living conditions for fish

'''Wednesday 23rd June''' - A small meeting between Thomas Leach, Narmada Herath and Steven Garrett comparing 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 IGEM projects from other universities. Particular interest was taken in microbial fuel cells, as these may be adapted for desalination. We're hoping to look further into exploiting this to desalinate samples of water possibly in cartridge form

The projects using search and destroy bacteria and self healing pipes were also considered in some detail. These will be discussed further during the next meeting.

You should make use of the calendar feature on the wiki and start a lab notebook.  This may be looked at by the judges to see how your work progressed throughout the summer.  It is a very useful organizational tool as well.
