Tom Knight

His research interests are parallel VLSI architectures, behavioral and high-level synthesis of architectures, virtual architectures layered on reconfigurable hardware, verification of compiled architectures, and future microbial architectures. Dr. Babb earned his bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1991 and his master's degree and Ph.D. in electrical engineering and computer science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1994 and 1999, respectively.

Natalie Kuldell did her doctoral and post-doctoral work at Harvard Medical School. She develops discovery-based curricula drawn from the current literature to engage undergraduate students in structured, reasonably authentic laboratory experiences. She has also written educational materials to improve scientific communication as it occurs across disciplinary boundaries and as it's taught in undergraduate subjects. Her research examines gene expression in eukaryotic cells, focusing most recently on synthetic biology and redesign of the yeast mitochondria. She serves as Associate Education Director for SynBERC, an NSF-funded research center for Synthetic Biology, and Councilor at Large for the Institute of Biological Engineering.

Tom Knight is a senior research scientist in the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, part of the MIT School of Engineering. Inspired in part by the work of Harold Morowitz, a Yale physicist and biologist, Knight studied biochemistry, genetics, and cellular biology, and set up a biology lab within MIT's Laboratory for Computer Science. In this lab he created the concept of the BioBrick and began creating a library of BioBricks that could be used to build biological computation structures. Today, BioBricks form the basis of the iGEM (International Genetically Engineered Machine) competition.
Knight continues to focus on Synthetic Biology at the Knight Laboratory.
